#GenealogyForum Chat Channel on Afternet has two sessions particular
interest in May.
1) Trevor Rix, a founding member of both the Suffolk Family History Society
and the Essex Society for Family History of Suffolk, England, will be
joining us in the Channel on May 15th at 5:30 PM Eastern Time.
The topic for Trevor's presentation is "Researching UK Parish Registers"
and will cover researching the parish registers of England and Wales, with
a brief mention of Scotland. "Parish registers of baptisms, marriages and
burials are the most important source of UK official family history
records. They span 1538 to the present day."
2) Cyndi Howells (
www.CyndisList.com) will be joining us on May 23rd for a
Tour of CyndisList website similar to our tour of FamilyTreeMaker that was
conducted by Paul Burchfield.
If you would like to join us for these sessions, you will find on our
website, complete step by step instructions for downloading the necessary
software for connecting with Internet Relay Chat. You will also find setup
instructions for connecting with our network (Afternet) and our channel
