DearREADERS,
This is the lineup for today's
show, now available for you to listen to 24/7 on the web. Please also note the
"Links We Mention" and "Listening to the Show" directions below.
Myrt's guests include:
Barbara Schulz, Regent of the Osceola
Chapter of the NSDAR, and a Colonial Dames of the XVII Century registrar.
She will share a great method for being organized when it comes to proving
your generations for a lineage society application.
Geoff Rasmussen, from http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com

test it out for free. Ol' Myrt here is sure you'll want to upgrade to the deluxe
version once you get into this program. Here is a list of comparisons from:
