Topic: Travelling Back in Time Using Google Earth Pro

This session demonstrates how you can visually wow your friends and relatives with your family history research. Google Earth Pro is a free program that gives you a way to map out your ancestors’ lives and add in as many visuals and text as you can find. It can help us better understand the places where our ancestors lived and sometimes even leads us to answers we’ve been searching for. Kids especially love to “fly” through time and see where their ancestors lived.
