April Journeyman

Welcome to the very last History Journeyman class. I know, it's sad. There’s just so much stuff I wanted to do! This week, we’re going to be learning how to do indexing. Indexing is a great way to do family history, and honestly, it's kind of addicting. First, you say just one project, then maybe just one more, but oh look, that one isn't in cursive, so maybe I'll do just that one...

If you already know how you don’t have to watch all the videos. Instead, I’d like you to spend at least 15 minutes doing indexing and/or family search.

Watch the following videos

Here is an introduction to Indexing. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and it should be there.

Here is an instruction video.

Indexing requires you to download the program. Make sure you check with your parents that it's okay first. Here is the link. Go to it and download the program.

Once you have done that, try it out! Look for a simple project and do it. If you can't read cursive, you can specifically pick ones that were printed on a typewriter. SO AWESOME!

And just for fun, I found a few family history games you can play online.
