Maryland Public Television and the Maryland Genealogical Society offer another beginner-to-intermediate genealogy workshop series, coming this spring. Finding Your Roots Online will consist of four (4) two-hour sessions focused on the online resources individuals can search to find more information about their ancestors. Each session will feature a combination of lecture, small and large group discussion, question and answer time, and a homework assignment relating to your family search. Handouts will be provided for each session. The webinars will be recorded and registrants can view the sessions later; however, because this workshop is interactive, we encourage all registrants to attend the live virtual sessions whenever possible. This series is perfect for anyone looking to better understand the vast offerings of online family research. Your family does not need Maryland ties to benefit from this course; however, the instructor will use some Maryland examples. Those who attend will receive a one-year MPT Passport membership or membership extension, and a one-year membership to the Maryland Genealogical Society (MGS) — not applicable to current MGS members.
