Today was our last class in the 8 sessions with Michelle Christi. We certainly enjoyed learning tips and techniques about genealogical research. I believe that everyone was able to find one or more links in their personal research. Today's class was about how to research business and employment records to find family connections. Michelle also compiled a listing of "old" job descriptions that will help you understand what your ancestor did as a living....you will be amused at the jobs listed.

Several class members asked for a sheet gathering all of the websites that Michelle has mentioned. I created a one page Word document that you can download and click on each website. To view and download - click here.
