September, 2008
|
At the September meeting we will discuss and demonstrate recording and printing family ancestor medical data doctors often ask you to provide on short notice.
PAF help screens suggest I can print family group sheets that detail each individual’s significant medical events without printing extraneous notes. In recent weeks I have found a way to do that. This can answer questions about how long ancestors lived, cause of death, and illnesses I may be at risk for.
A recent doctor visit was preceded by a request to complete a two page medical history form in ten minutes. When I returned home, I realized I did not have a copy for my wife to review and/or correct. When I requested a copy, it was promptly furnished.. My suggestion is to request these forms when you make an appointment so you can review your records at home.
Some of you may be interested in topics planned by the Richardson Historical Society which meets monthly in the Fall and Spring at the Richardson Public Library. Copies of their new schedule will be available at the September Family History meetng.
In August, Jackie Brink demonstrated Family Tree Maker and answered questions.
There was a request to identify a single location to access genealogical data from other countries. The best internet site I have found is www.CyndisList.com . While very large, it is well indexed.
As has happened before, the presentation of The Master Genealogist program will be postponed because of our guest speaker’s Saturday work schedule. We have learned that the program can be run from a flash drive and that will be done during our October meeting. TMG is available as a 30 day free trial, and in both a limited free version, and a full featured version costing $40.00.
In one recent meeting we were asked which genealogy computer program is the best. For those just starting, it may be best to first create written family group sheets. Blank sheets will be available at the meeting. The next logical step would be to use one of the simplified, free programs. As this becomes comfortable, it makes sense to graduate to one of the more powerful fee programs.
Purchasing a reference book from a book store can help you direct your activities in collecting information from many sources.
