October is Family History Month!
Tuesday, October 1 through Thursday, October 31
October is Family History Month!  (Virtual Meetings)
The Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society would like to help you preserve your family history.
 
Bring your family documents, old photos, negatives, slides, tapes, and home movies to the SVGS Library to get them digitized absolutely FREE!
Bring your own USB drive for documents, photos, negatives and slides and a CD for tapes and movies. (There will be thumb drives and CDs available for purchase at the library.)

We will be open all month long on Tuesday, Thursdays, and Saturdays from 10am to 4 pm.

It takes longer to digitize tapes and movies, so we request an appointment to make sure the equipment is available when you arrive. Please email info@stillygen.org Attention: LeAnne.

The SVGS Library is located at 6111 188 th PL NE, Arlington. East of the airport and north of the Boys and Girls Club. Look for the Genealogy Library signs.
 
Hint: Digital copies of family memories make thoughtful gifts for the holidays!

Sue's topic: FamilySearch's Full-Text Search: A Free AI Tool You Should Definitely Be Using
 
Come learn how to use FamilySearch's full-text searching. This new beta tool makes it easier to find your ancestors in unindexed records, in unexpected locations or timeframes, and in roles that were unindexed previously (i.e., witness, heirs, bondsman, adjoining landowner, etc.). Starting with U S land and probate, this new AI tool is rapidly expanding to include additional record types, locations and timeframes.
