APRIL - 

Introducing & Using the GPS

Beginner level and up

It sounds dry but it’s fun!  Come learn about a fundamental genealogical concept – the Genealogy Proof Standard, GPS for short.  The group will look at and practice all five steps together.  We will also begin looking at the 3x3 Evidence Analysis Process (Elizabeth Shown Mills) to understand Source, Information, and Evidence and how they impact each other.  Putting all these pieces together makes your research accurate, complete and fascinating to share!
