Most genealogy people are always looking for their ancestors, searching for new databases and all those things to fill in the Birth, Marriage and Death information on them. But, I have also found that genealogy people are also very interested in learning the best ways and different ways to enhance their computer use. To this end, six members of my Blue Hills Genealogical Society-Barron County, Inc. are taking a Photo Restoration class through our local Technical college. It is 3 consecutive Thursday evenings, price is under $25 for most of us and only $4 for those over 62 years of age. We are getting a chance to use PhotoShop CS3 and related usage to PhotoShop Elements. What fun as we all work on our old or damaged photos.
When you get tired and hit the brick walls in your research, try looking for your local society. Maybe they can help with the brick wall OR you may even find some fun things that they are doing and it enhances your personal genealogical hobby!
