Need more ideas?
Think about how you use certain programs/apps or products for genealogy,
such as Evernote, spreadsheets, or scanners, and share your tips for success. Or, what about sharing your specialized knowledge
of underutilized resources such as state censuses, court records, legislative
petitions, or territorial papers? Are
you well-acquainted with researching an ethnic group and can offer tips to
others? Are you a past or present
society leader with words of wisdom to pass along to new society leaders? The possibilities are endless!
If you are interested in writing an article (or two!) for FORUM, please contact me at forumeditor@fgs.org. Deadlines for upcoming 2016 issues are: January 15, March 15, and June 15.
We are looking for an editor for the Reviews section, as
well as additional book and product reviewers.
Those interested should contact me at forumeditor@fgs.org to discuss further.
