January 2023 General Monthly Meeting

January 13, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Using Google Maps

Since Google Maps™ mapping service was first introduced in 2005, most of us have used it to find our way to a restaurant, venue or on vacation.  You can also use Google Maps for genealogy, as Mary will demonstrate in this presentation:

  • Visualize locations of ancestors to help you find their records
  • Track ancestors’ movements and migration patterns
  • Support FAN Club analysis by plotting people’s places in proximity to one another and particularly to our ancestors
  • Plan research-oriented travel

Meeting Recording available to Members HERE
