I decided to watch "In Their Own Words," and then I went to this webinar! I so enjoyed them both, but I got the most enjoyment out of "Finding Calvin!" I am so grateful for being a member of Legacy Family Tree Webinars, because I can go back and look at any of the webinars in the library! Thank you, Renate, Geoff and Marian and all of the many speakers that so enhance our lives!
