His handling of indigenous peoples and the Louis Riel rebellion lingers on in today’s debates.\nThe event will be held on Thursday\, December 4 th \, starting at 11 am at the AFHS Resource Centre in the Heritage Square at Suite 251-South\, 8500 Macleod Trail\, S.E. The talk will also be available on Zoom. See the link below.\nWe are inviting members of the Alberta Family Histories Society\, AFHS\, to join us in person or by Zoom. This is sponsored by the “Historical Events & Their Impact” group of the Calgary Association of Lifelong Learners\, CALL. Please come to the talk to enjoy some Canadiana and to meet some other very interesting people.\nThe presentation will wrap up by noon. The members of CALL intend to enjoy a lunch at the nearby Toscana Restaurant\, a short walking distance just north of Heritage Square with optional parking for you. AFHS members are welcome to join us. \nJim Benedict \nThe Zoom link has been distributed to our members in recent Windsock messages.

SUMMARY:Family Tree Maker Special Interest Group
DESCRIPTION: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. \nThe Family Tree Maker Special Interest Group meets on first Saturdays each month except July and August at 10 am (Edmonton time). \nAll 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. \nFor 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. \nOur special interest groups are a member benefit\, but we welcome visitors!
