Genealogy Chat (TPCGS Monthly Meetings)
7:00 pm to 8:30 pm Virtual via Zoom
Discussion starter topic: How are we doing?
We have made some changes over the last year, sent out a member survey, changed the Newsletter to monthly, added another Special Interest Group, and changed the location of our monthly Educational meeting. Please attend and share your thoughts about these changes and any suggestions for things you would like to see added or changed.
This is a monthly opportunity to connect with others and talk about anything and everything genealogical. The value of this meeting increases with the participation of each person that attends and contributes to the conversations. This is your chance to celebrate the breaking down of a brick wall in your research, or ask questions of others that can help you find records or relatives. Everyone, members and guests are welcome and encouraged to attend and participate.

Legacy Family Tree Software Special Interest Group (Special Interest Groups)
7:00 pm to 8:30 pm Virtual via Zoom
This month we will continue reviewing the free Legacy Family Tree software videos hosted by Geoff Rasmussen. Our current video in this series is "Legacy 9 Unlocked (part 2): Adding an Online Document" it is a longer video that we started last month so we will be finishing it this month. Even though Legacy 10 was just released in Jun 2024, almost all the features shown in this video are still in the current program. If you are thinking about trying Legacy or are currently using it, this video can teach or remind you how to properly use the software and be successful with your research. If you have any suggestions for future topics, please send them in.
This is our monthly meeting to share tips & tricks, problems & solutions. Sometimes we will watch videos or share our screens to aid in learning more about using Legacy Family Tree software.
Everyone is welcome to attend and participate in the learning. If you are just thinking about trying Legacy for the first time, you've been using it for a year or two or you are an old pro with many years of experience using Legacy this is the group for you.
We look forward to meeting with you, every month on the First Tuesday at 7:00 PM Pacific Time
