Fresno North Stake FamilySearch Center Training

This class was "Cousin Research Using the Descendancy Chart in FamilySearch Family Tree." The class is the 4th in our series of new consultant trainings.  We covered the concept of doing cousin research in Tree with the focus of using the Descendancy View found in Tree.  The class focused on the resources built into the Descendancy view.  We also suggested ways to mine the descendants of an ancestor to find people to add or people who are already in Tree but showing their ordinances are available.  Real examples of descendancy research were provided.

 Untangling messes created by bad merges in the FamilySearch Family Tree can be messy.  This class will provide guidance on how to undo bad merges.  It will also introduce a brand new tool that has been created by FamilySearch to help us in this task.  It is called Merge Assist and is an outstanding tool that can really help us determine if a merge is bad and needs fixing.
