As we reach the end of the year, beginners and intermediate class members appear to have made headway on their goals for the year. We have continued to work, often one to one, on strengthening the skills and confidence of remaining beginning and intermediate students and have enjoyed the sharing of pains and gains and themes of interest when in working in small groups.
As an example of what can be achieved in a one-to-one session, Deb reported this month that "Phil and I had another very productive session today. Making use of a large document that Phil had received from a relative, we were able to gather information and resources for his ancestry family tree. To make the task easier we chose to focus on one generation of a family today. The document contained copies of baptisms, burials and death certificates that we were able to snip and save. Phil plans to add the saved images to the gallery of the family member they belong to in ancestry."
