"Short Updated History of CGSSD" by Joan Lowrey
"Excel and Word, the Genealogist's Best Friend" by Hal Horrocks
Excel and Word can greatly enhance your genealogy research. Examples showing how they can be used in your everyday research will be presented. From taking your current database and converting it to Excel for better examination to extracting large amounts of data for finding those tough to find ancestors will be shown.
