Genealogy
Interest Group
The Genealogy Interest Group is a group of
individuals who want to find out about their
heritage, who their ancestors were, where they lived
and what they did. The group provides tools to do
your research and help in getting started. For the
experienced, we may offer suggestions to break
through a stumbling block to another generation.
They meet on the first Wednesday of the month
from 10 am to noon with a short presentation and a
help session answering questions the attendees have.
We offer a second two hour period of individual
help each month, date and time to be announced
on the TAG calendar. We offer the World Explorer
version of Ancestry.com, a search engine for finding
your ancestors free of charge in the computer lab.
(Individual subscription about $100 a month.) We
offer the Family Tree Maker program on several of
the computers in the lab to catalog your family tree
data and present your tree data.
The coordinators are Dorothy Miller and Don
Wirth. Help sessions will add Peggy Singh. Contact
us at ohccgen@gmail.com.
The Computer Room is open and TAG members are here to offer computer,
tablet, and smart-phone assistance to all OHCC residents. Volunteers provide
General Help Sessions, Topic-specific Help Sessions, How-to Workshops, and
Classes throughout the month. We have resident enthusiasts in Genealogy,
Windows, Apple, Android, etc. who list their availability on our calendar. The
TAG Calendar is available at the beginning of each month but is subject to change
throughout the month; be sure to check it regularly. View the most current
calendar in the window of the computer room or on the OHCC website under
Clubs. Select TAG, then click on the Calendar tab or go to: www.ohcctag.wixsite.

Watch for classes on Apple products and workshops on various smart phones,
tablets and smart home devices as well as other topics. We have a robust Genealogy
Interest Group with access to Ancestry and Family Tree Maker in the Computer
Room. If you are interested contact them at ohccgen@gmail.com.
