In October we learned about the different types of scanning devices. At this meeting OGS members will show how those scanned documents and photos can be creatively displayed to document your ancestor’s history.

 

 

 

 

Chuck Sherrill, retired Tennessee State Librarian and Archivist, describes the creation and evolution of historical documents and their preservation from the ancient past to our modern day. He will explain how modern technology can reverse the damage to documents so important to genealogists today and will provide methods for more efficient research in the future. The presentation will be via Zoom.
