The Maine Genealogical Society is pleased to announce Laura Prescott (http://lauraprescott.com) as the featured speaker at our 2013 Fall Conference to be held Saturday, September 21 in Brewer, Maine. The day of lectures will begin with Prescott's keynote address, "How The Internet Makes Us Sloppy Genealogists." From there we will enjoy a number of breakout sessions on a variety of topics for varying interests and experience levels - but all designed to help us to become better (and less sloppy!) family historians.
In addition to learning about some of the tools available for online research, including FamilySearch.org and Footnote.com, we'll be exploring the use of divorce records, early Maine town records and academic archives for our research. So, bring your Maine related queries for our query board, visit our exhibitor/vendor area and enjoy a nice lunch during while making new friends and learning some new tips and techniques for furthering your own research.
Registration is $40 for MGS Members and $50 for non-members.
