We all have to start somewhere, and the Beginners SIG (Special Interest Group) is a group for WHAGS members who aren't experts (yet) to meet, discuss, and learn about the basics of genealogy and building your family tree. 

    Each month we'll cover a different topic and talk about it in easy-to-digest terms and language... even DNA!  Topics planned now include, Getting Started, DNA, Organizing All My Stuff, Organizing Digital Records, Genealogy Websites such as Ancestry.com, Find-a-Grave, and WikiTree, and more.

    Each month will also include an open Q&A session to help you with your beginners questions.

​

No Meeting in December!!

Next meeting:  Tuesday, January 21st, 10:00 am, via Zoom.

​​

​​​​January topic:  Organize Your Stuff!  Last month we covered organizing your digital files.  This month Jeanie Smith will show us how to organize all the other stuff... the stuff you can touch and hold in your hand.  Photos, certificates, heirlooms, and much more.  Learn how to preserve and protect your invaluable treasures.
