Genealogy Programs with Emphasis on WikiTree.com Workshop led by Scott Atkinson
Choosing the right genealogy software can make the difference between a research collection that grows with you and one that fights you every step of the way. In this workshop, Scott Atkinson surveys the landscape of genealogy programs — desktop and online — and takes a deep dive into WikiTree.com, the free, collaborative "one world tree" where researchers work together on a single shared family tree backed by sources. Scott will cover how WikiTree's honor code and sourcing standards keep the tree accurate, how to connect your ancestors to the global tree, and how features like DNA confirmation, free space pages, and project communities can advance your research. Whether you're evaluating your first genealogy program or considering adding WikiTree to your toolkit, you'll leave knowing which tools fit your research style — and how to get started.
Pre-registration is required.
