Kathy Jones is presenting a four-week course by Zoom to get you started using Legacy Family Tree software
Oct. 6, 13, 20, 27, 2026; 7:00PM-8:30PM
FREE to BCGS Members, $40 for Non-members.
This four-week course will introduce you to the basics of Legacy Family Tree.  For maximum benefit, please plan to attend all classes. Each week builds on knowledge learned the previous week. The first week covers an overview of the software's capabilities and how to use a GEDCOM file to transfer an existing family tree.  In the second week, you design your home page and learn about backups. The third week covers tools, merging, colour coding, DNA, and privacy.  The final class covers sources, printing reports, and advanced features.

‍BCGS maintains a register of our members’ surname research interests. Members can add as many surnames as they wish, along with the specific locations and dates they are researching.
The surname interests have now been updated, so be sure to take a look! And If you haven’t yet added your surname interests, we encourage you to do so. It’s a great way to connect with other members who may be researching the same families or surnames.
And there’s an added benefit: BCGS members’ surname interests are also included in the Family History Federation’s surname listings, giving your research interests even greater exposure and increasing the chances of making a valuable connection.
