Wednesday, 4-May-22 at 6:00 PM. Photos in Genealogy--What is a family tree without photos to enhance the story?  But many old photos are degrading with age in storage.  And we can’t always travel to see the newest members of the family.  Even when we do get to snap the picture, the quality is less than what we expect for historical purposes.  And how do we get it off our phones and into our books and online trees?! This fully packed training will cover these issues and more as we learn tips of the trade for your pictures. Coffey, Hybrid meeting; LH Room and online via Zoom.
