Upcoming Meetings & Events

This group is for people who use or are interested in using RootsMagic, a genealogy software program. Each meeting includes two short presentations about the program's features, followed by time for questions and discussions.

This is an informal, friendly group working on writing their own story or the story of their ancestors. 

Do you have a family history you want to share but don't know where to begin? This group meets to provide training and share ideas for creating digital albums/books that include your family stories, photos, and memorabilia.

This group is a forum for family history researchers currently using or interested in using the Family Tree Maker database software. Our goal is to provide an opportunity for users to interact with other users to improve our collective skills.

Speaker: Retta Whinnery

Have you ever wondered how people who are adopted and have no access to paper records can figure out who their biological parents are? Taking a DNA test could be the key. There are DNA Search Angel groups who help people who are adopted, or donor-conceived, or have taken a DNA test and learned that they are not related to half of their known family. DNA Search Angels are genetic genealogists who can work with your DNA matches to build genetic networks to solve biological mysteries.

This research group focuses on the Irish research that the attendees are doing. Meetings will cover questions about your Irish research, what roadblocks you are facing, and resources to help you.

All members are welcome to attend.  To request a link to the meeting, please email info@jcgsks.org  

Each meeting covers a DNA topic that is announced in advance. We use slides to help understand the websites, and the tools available to help understand your DNA matches. 

This group is for people who want to know more about FamilySearch.org, understand how to use its many features, and access the billions of records available for everyone—all for FREE.

This is a forum to learn the software, get questions answered, and improve your efficiency.  There are two parts to each meeting: basic topics using the Legacy Family Tree software, and then demonstrating how to use more advanced features of the program.
