Updates to the New Person Page at FamilySearch (August 17, 2022)

Image
Within the past two weeks FamilySearch has published a major update to the New Person Page that they first introduced as an optional feature about a year ago.  The change now is that in addition to the original new page which was very colorful and had interactive features, the new update brings us new pages for Data, Sources, Memories and Ordinances.  You can access the new page from a link at the top right of the old person page (and you can toggle back to the old page if you want to return to it.)  This new page is really well organized and I personally love it and have switched over to using it exclussively.  As the saying goes  - Try it, you'll like it! Here is the link to the recording. Here is a link to a PDF of all the slides.  

Adding Memories at FamilySearch (August 3, 2022)

Image
It is Memories that help us put the meat on the bones of our ancestors and help turn them into living, breathing people.  This presentation will walk you through the ins and outs of the Memories component in FamilySearch.  This will introduce all the features of Memories and help you to be a better user of the website.  Link to the Recording Link to the PDF of the Slide Deck
