Life From The Roots: Mar 6, 2012

The Life From The Roots blog topics have changed several times since I began this blog in 2009. I initially wrote only about the family history I had been working on for 20 years. Years later, I was into visiting gardens, historical homes, churches, libraries that had genealogical collections, historical societies, war memorials, and travel/tourism places. I also enjoy posting autographs and photos of famous people I've met or have seen.

Along with my New England roots, other areas include New York, New Jersey, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, and the Eastern Townships of Quebec, Canada.

Please check out the labels on the right side for topics (please note, they need work). Below the labels and pageviews is a listing of my top nine posts, according to Google. Four of them pertain to Lowell, MA. These posts change often because they are based on what people are reading.

Remember Roots Tech 2012? Now you can View the Lectures for FREE

What a surprise, after over a month, Roots Tech 2012 has finally decided to make available the individual lectures many of us saw in early February. At that time, we were glued to our computers watching the outstanding lectures. Even the minute they were over, I wanted to watch again, but we were told they would be available soon. I've thought about them, but hesitated to ask anybody for fear of appearing stupid for not knowing the answer. It paid off, I just saw the announcement on Google+ by Dave Barney. He wrote, "Individual session videos are now live on RootsTech!

Home | RootsTech.org"

Or go to: FamilySearch https://www.familysearch.org/techtips/2012/03/rootstech-2012-videos

There are 12 that were streamed live, and five new ones. In addition, "Jay Verkler's keynote "Inventing the Future, As a Community" and Ron Tanner's presentation "Future of FamilySearch Family Tree" will be posted at a later date."

So friends, go to the site, and pick a lecture to watch for the first time or the second. I, for one, am very glad to have these available.
