Why start genealogy with the census?
What census records are on microfilm or digital?
Why search for the family in every census?
What information is available on the census record?
Where does the researcher find census records?
How does the researcher locate a person or family?
Interested parties should bring a laptop.

Clayton State Genealogy Group to Meet, August 1
The Clayton State University Genealogy Group’s next meeting will be Sunday, Aug. 1, from 1 p.m. until 2:30 p.m., in room 200 of the Clayton State Library.
According to Clayton State Archivist Rosemary Fischer, the group will be helping beginners learn to do genealogical research.
“If you are new to genealogy and want to learn how to trace your family line and discover who’s living in your family tree, then this workshop is for you,” she says.
From 3 p.m. to 5 p.m., the group will have speakers doing presentations on heritage societies, including the Sons and Daughters of the Confederacy and the Sons and Daughters of the American Revolution.
“We will learn about these societies, their membership, and their meetings,” adds Fischer. If you’ve ever wanted to join and didn’t know where to start, then this workshop is for you.”
