All Salt Lake classes are next week, April 14. The regular mentoring classes are in the Church History Museum auditorium at 10:30-11:30 and 12-1, and the fast-track class is from 10:30-12:30 in the main-floor classroom. Note the time change for the fast-track class in April only ... this is due to a FHL scheduling conflict.

It's next week, on the 14th. Also remember there is a time and place change -- instead of meeting 10-12, we'll meet 10:30-12:30; and instead of meeting in room 218, we'll meet in the main floor classroom.

Is the fast track class in Salt Lake City tomorrow or next wednesday?

If anyone is still looking for a copy of "The Researcher's Guide To American Genealogy" by Greenwood, I have come across two older editions that are for sale. If anyone is interested you may contact me at: clairquilter@hotmail.com.

We have filmed classes 2 and 3, and are just finishing editing them. They'll be online soon and we'll email you when they are ready.

Have classes 2 and 3 been filmed yet? I haven't had an email saying they were online.

My friend Suzanne Russo Adams (an Italian expert) recommend the following books for Italian research:

Adams, Suzanne Russo. Finding Your Italian Ancestors: A Beginner’s Guide. Provo: UT: Ancestry Publishing, 2009.

Cole, Trafford. Italian Genealogical Records: How to Use Italian Civil, Ecclesiastical & Other Family History Research. Salt Lake City, UT: Ancestry, 1995.

Colletta, John Philip. Finding Italian Roots. Baltimore, MD: Genealogical Publishing Company, 1993.

Last night in class it was mentioned that "Who do you think you are" is being Americanized. Does anyone know if there is a place online to see the British versions?
