The FamilySearch Family History Library, based in Utah USA, is running a series of free webinars in June 2022
Classes include a 2-day series on welsh genealogy, two specific classes on chinese research, one session for spanish speakers entitled La investigación genealógica en Sudamérica Sur [Genealogical Research in South America], and a session on tracing african american ancestors.
Other classes include using FamilySearch images, US cemetery records, the FamilySearch community, and help and resources. If your interest is the FamilySearch Family Tree, additional sessions will cover merging duplicates, correcting relationships, record hints, and best practices & reason statements (in ‘Sources’). There will be one session on indexing for those interested in helping make historical records more searchable online.
