Event Description
Many of us have Canadian ancestry. This information packed presentation from Tara Shymanski guides researchers through internet sources available for research in Canada. We'll look at the Collections Canada website, provincial archives, Ancestry and FamilySearch. Attendees will learn what records are on these websites, how the records will build your family tree and how to find information on each website.
