Sessions:

1. Social Media can help you not just take your time

Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, YouTube, blogs, Instagram and Flickr can be a great asset in genealogical research. We will discuss how each Social Media items can help you in the following four areas:

Specific research for your family,
General research helps & training,
Share information with others, and
Meet distant relatives

Items such as finding groups, research and location helps, and connecting with others all over the world who are doing genealogy in your same areas.

2. Organizing, Preserving and Sharing Photos and Documents.
Photos and documents are the backbone of Family History. We will discuss different ways to preserve and organize your photos and documents with documentation. Once they are all organized we need to share them with family members. We will discuss different ways to share these items for all to enjoy.

About Lianne Kruger

Genealogy

I researched my paternal grandmother's line to the first three white landowners of Canada in the 80's. I began genealogy going on genealogy trips in Ontario, England, and Scotland at graveyards with my mother starting at age 7 on. As a teenager, I sat in front of a microfilm reader with a list of names every Saturday at an FHL while my mother volunteered helping others.

I have spoken at Genealogical conferences and sessions at RootsTech (UT), FamilyRoots (UT), The Genealogy Show (in Birmingham, UK) as well as in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ogden, and Ontario.
