September is just around the corner, and there’s never been a better time to send yourself “back to school” and take your genealogy skills up a level: Legacy Family Tree Webinars is hosting the third annual Webtember, a free, month-long online genealogy conference!
Every Friday in September, Legacy Family Tree Webinars will host multiple live and pre-recorded webinars with expert speakers on a wide variety of family history topics. A total of 31 webinars will take place, and they’ll all be available to view for free until the end of the month.
Our own Myko Clelland, Director of Content in Europe at MyHeritage, will be speaking about tracing migrating ancestors; Emmanuel Condamine, COO of Filae, will provide an introduction to this extremely valuable French platform we acquired last year; and many, many more fascinating sessions sure to be of interest to MyHeritage fans are in the lineup. You can register for just one session, several, or all of them — completely free.
