We still have four seats available for the Deginner / Intermediate genealogy class that will start on August 30 at Tri County Community College. This class will not be taught again until the Fall of 2013 at the earliest so do not delay in signing up for this popular class. If you have wanted to take a general genealogy class to help your research along then do not miss this opportunity.
Who Do You Think You Are? - Beginning/Intermediate Genealogy Course
NBC's TV program Who Do You Think You Are? sparked a lot of interest in genealogy research. If you would like to learn how to do your own family research then this course is for you. Some of the course material includes the usage of a variety of record sources in the pursuit of ancestor hunting. Sources such as vital records, census, church records, court, military, land property, and tax records will be discussed in detail. Genealogy basics as well as advanced topics such as DNA testing will be included as part of this course. This course is a requirement to take any of the advanced genealogy courses offered at TCCC.
6:30 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. Thursday (12 weeks)
You can sign up for this or any of my other two advanced genealogy courses (must complete above class to take advanced classes) by contacting Lisa Long, the director of community outreach at TCCC via phone 828-837-6810.
