British Isles SIG-Hybrid Meeting

  British Isles Special Interest Group

NOTE:  Topic shifted from February due to cancellation of that meeting.

Topic:  Using FamilySearch Full Text Search for the British Isles

Speaker:  Colin Whitney

Last year at the RootsTech conference, FamilySearch launched a new tool called Full Text Search. This is a game changer for your research which, to date, has relied on searching indexes composed of limited transcriptions of the information contained in documents. Full Text search can read and decipher every word on every page providing a search capability for any names, places or topics previously unavailable. We will apply this tool to British Isles records to examine how this can enhance your research.

This meeting will be a Hybrid meeting via Zoom and in-person at the San Diego FamilySearch Center in Mission Valley.

The public is always welcome!
