Fresno North Stake FamilySearch Center Training

As Chad and Jeremy sang in the song A Summer Song in 1964 - "...all good things must end some day" - it is time for this series of classes to come to an end.  For the past six and a half years it has been my pleasure to serve all of you through providing you hopefully helpful and educational content related to family history and FamilySearch specifically.  Do to so serious health issues I need to voluntarily close this project down, though I will leave this blog up so you can locate both the videos and the PDFs of the slide decks. As I said above, it has been a pleasure to serve you and I hope you all find happiness and joy in finding your ancestors and helping others do the same. " 

  This week's class was "The Reservation Process Today."  I always like to end the year with something on temples and the reservation process.  This year the presentation is a little different.  This class covers a little about how the Brethren plan for the future - including temples and proxy temple work.  We focus on how the reservation process changed when new.familysearch and the FamilySearch Tree were introduced including issues that came from this new reservation process.  We also cover policies that had to be instituted to control over zealous submitters and the rules as they stand today.  Finally we briefly cover ways to find relatives who need temple work.  Link to the Video Link to the PDF of the Slides
