It’s hard to believe that RootsTech 2019 is less than three weeks away! The Family History Guide will be busier than ever, with a presentation session on Thursday, Feb. 28 and two sessions on Saturday, Mar. 2 (Discovery Day at Roots Tech).The post also has the schedule of The Family History Guide 20-minute mini-classes during RootsTech. Also, at The Family History Guide booth on the Exhibit floor, we will be having a steady schedule of presentations about the website. We will also have a number of volunteers available to answer questions. My wife, Ann, will be spending most of her time at the booth and I will be there answering questions and teaching as my other commitments permit.
Here is the schedule from the RootsTech Schedule page:
