Genealogy Programs
With the introduction of the NBC show Who Do You Think You Are?, genealogy is increasing in popularity. The Atlanta History Center offers a variety of workshops to help patrons use the Kenan Research Center's resources and make family research easy and enjoyable.
A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words: Collecting, Identifying, Preserving, and Sharing Your Family Photographs and Videos
Not sure what to do with that box of old photographs under the bed or those grainy VHS tapes behind the TV? Family photographs and videos present unique challenges to the family historian. While these materials can provide additional information about the lives of our ancestors and open a window on the past, they can also be difficult to organize, challenging to preserve, and nearly impossible to identify. Atlanta History Center's Archivist Sue VerHoef teaches attendees to work with these visual souvenirs of days gone by in this afternoon program at the History Center's Kenan G. Research Center. |
