GFHS Monthly Talk – Family Tree Maker (FTM) – Wednesday 19th March 2025

FTM, the Family Tree Maker program is a fantastic tool, especially if you have always wanted to organise your family research, attach photographs after digitising your albums, keep all your documents and BMD registers associated with the various members of the tree, or just begin to build your family tree, then this talk is for you.

Denise will present a second talk on Family Tree Maker (which is one of many commercial software packages available today. This program is reasonably priced and has enormous capabilities and possibilities that everyone can master in a short amount of time with little computer experience.) The talk will run as a step-by-step tutorial on how to add people to your tree, add children, uncles and grandparents, as well as show the actual process of adding data, documents, or images to each of the associated people.

This talk will be on the 17th August at 2.00 pm, and will be held in the Gympie Family History Society rooms at 1 Chapple Street Gympie (down under the Rattler Railway Station).

If your really keen, bring your laptop, and learn how to start the process of inputting data for your own family tree.

The tutorial talk and discussion will be around 45 to 60 mins, with questions and answers afterwards.

Tea and coffee will be provided, so come for the talk, and stay for a chat, on the presented subject, or anything family history and or Gympie related.

Remember, our library facilities, rooms and members are available to assist your family history research needs afterwards.
