“The Future of Your Research: Ensuring Your Work Continues”
Presented by: Gena Philibert-Ortega
You love your family history. But what happens to it when you shake off this mortal coil? How do you organize it and get it ready for the inevitable? Let’s explore how to organize, label, and put together your family history research so that others can (willingly) take up where you left off. We will also explore where to leave your family history information so others can benefit. If you have ever been concerned about what happens to your research when you are no longer around, this is the presentation for you!
