Census Analysis: Sat., July 24th, 2010

MacGen will present a program on Census Analysis on Saturday, July 24, 2010 at 1:30pm at the Oakland, California LDS Regional Family History Center. Documenting and analyzing census records is one of the toughest things for a family researcher to do. It can be very difficult to even read some census records, let alone compare them with other census records for the same person. Using spreadsheets to consolidate information and spot trends in your relative's life and family can be done in an easy, straight-forward manner. We will use free census spreadsheet templates from Census Tools web site and a Census Analysis Form designed by Richard Rands, President of the Silicon Valley Computer Genealogy Group. The address of the Family History Center is 4766 Lincoln Ave., Oakland, CA 94602. The presentation will last about 2 hours and include Macintosh and Reunion tips.
