Jul 22 2025 - 6:00pm to 7:00pm

Take a look at a powerful new tool for family history research!  FamilySearch's "Full-Text Search" option uses cutting-edge handwriting recognition and OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology to turn images of handwritten and printed text into fully searchable digital documents. This gives you access to records like deeds, mortgages, and wills that may not show up in conventional searches. We'll explore this new resource as well as get support from fellow family history enthusiasts.. We'll use Zoom to meet together and all experience levels are welcome.
