How does one start researching one’s family history? This class will introduce students to the issues, challenges and pleasures of not only building one’s family tree, but also collecting the family stories that help make us who we are. While not required, come with your wireless capable laptop or tablet, if you have one. Instructor Emily Garber works with the Arizona Jewish Historical Society, and has been conducting family history research since 2007. She specializes in Jewish genealogical research and has worked with records from both German-Jewish and Eastern European Jewish immigrants.
