| Saturday, 18 February | Introduction to RootsMagic 8 (Windows and Mac) |
Jim Ross | |
| RootsMagic 8, the long-awaited rewrite of this popular genealogy software program, was released in October 2021. This hands-on introductory class will walk you through key features: creating a new tree from scratch; importing an existing tree from another program; adding and maintaining people, places, and media; and managing sources and citations. Also, you will learn how to synchronize your RootsMagic tree with both Ancestry and FamilySearch. This version of RootsMagic is very different from past versions, so everyone will benefit from this class. | |||
