More on Family Tree Webinars

Family Tree Webinars are FREE on the day broadcast and usually for several days afterward. The membership allows one to watch any of the past webinars at any time and allows the member to download the speaker's handouts. Contrary to many of the pay sites, they give you enough advance warning when the membership is expiring to cancel if you wish.

Legacy Family Tree & Legacy Family Tree Webinars

In an effort to stay informed on the latest best practices and information live speakers are the best. It is not always possible to attend these events. This is where webinars are a great alternative. There are many excellent webinars out there, www.FamilyTreeWebinars.com is one of the best. You could watch a new webinar practically daily on any genealogy subject you are interested in. Yes, there is a charge but it is about equal to signing up for one webinar offered by many other sites. Another great feature is you can watch it in the comfort of your own home. Check it out.

International Ancestry.com

If you are an International Ancestry.com subscriber do you know that there are nine other Ancestry websites to go to under the Ancestry umbrella? I personally go to Ancestry.de for my research in Germany. Yes, there are some of the same results but there are lots of results that I do not find on Ancestry.com. To find this information scroll down to the bottom of your Ancestry.com home page. In the bottom right corner it says "Other Sites" with a drop down. Enjoy!
