"I found Karen to be a great speaker, she was clear and easy to understand her points. I’d really enjoy taking another course by her again."

“It’s put me back on track by reminding me about the basics of good research, has shown me new ways of finding information when researching, introduced me to new websites. Looking at the creation of records and the issue of copies and transcriptions was really good and will make me look much more closely when researching in the future.”

“It explained a lot of things to me that I had always wanted to know, introduced me to a lot of new things & gave me a fresh perspective on how to do family trees.”
