Who This Course is For
The Family Tree Notebooks system of pages is designed to give you a way to organize your family history research while simultaneously building beautiful ancestry books page by page. In this class, we'll take a look at the most efficient way to use the system so you can capture every part of your family tree.
You may be just getting started with family history or you may have boxes/files/projects that just haven't come together yet in a cohesive way. No matter what your situation is, we'll walk start to finish through the process of getting your family history scanned, saved, and showcased using FTN pages.
The FTN system consists of digital pages designed to be used over and over. Although you can print the pages out and fill them in by hand, the system works best for people who are comfortable adding text/photos to PDF files. Basic instruction will be provided for people new to editing PDFs.
