Family Tree Maker Special Interest Group
2026-02-07 10:00 - 12:00 | Zoom
THIS MEETING HAS BEEN CANCELLED. This special interest group is for those who use Family Tree Maker software or would like to learn about it. Bring your questions! We learn from each other.
The Family Tree Maker Special Interest Group meets on first Saturdays each month except July and August at 10 am (Edmonton time).
All meetings are held via Zoom, and those on the SIG distribution list will be sent the link a few days before the meeting by Bev or Nola who are the SIG leaders.
For the coming year, the newest version of this software, 2024, will be the main topic of discussion. We will look at features and discuss any difficulties folks are facing. The value of this SIG is that someone may be able to help or suggest a way around it. Older versions are also looked at if necessary.
Our special interest groups are a member benefit, but we welcome visitors! If you would like to attend this meeting as a guest, please email communications@afhs.ab.ca to receive the Zoom invitation.
