Using Historical Newspapers in Your Genealogy Research

Historical newspapers should be a “primary” source for all genealogists. From births to obituaries, estate notices to news stories, newspapers can fill in important details and help to paint a fuller picture of our ancestors’ lives. This class will take a look at accessing newspaper content through a variety of resources. As the emphasis will be on using electronic resources, basic computer skills are recommended.

Class will take place in Computer Lab 2, First Floor, Main Library.
