    With this friendly\u00a0guide you have what you need to make real breakthroughs on your hard-to-find Georgia ancestors.\u00a0 Your favorite genealogist, Arlene Eakle\u00a0 http:\/\/arleneeakle.com<\/a><\/p>\n

    PS\u00a0\u00a0I added a patch to up-date my version of Windows so I could open email attachments.\u00a0 I did the patch correctly.\u00a0 Everything seemed to be working fine.\u00a0 Then I tried to access Firefox.\u00a0 UGH!\u00a0 Windows won’t allow it.\u00a0 Now what?\u00a0 Did tell you that I tried to register for a basic computer class at the trade tech nearby–they don’t teach one.\u00a0 So I called the high school.\u00a0 They don’t teach one.\u00a0 So I called the Family History Center (now called FamilySearch Center) across the street.\u00a0 They put my name on the list for a basic class.\u00a0 I was the only registrant.\u00a0 They don’t teach a class either.\u00a0 What is a great genealogist to do?\u00a0 I can’t even access my Home Page.<\/p>\n

    PPS\u00a0 I can access my email<\/span> and my post office box <\/span>and my FAX machine<\/span>–they are all listed on my Home Page–so if you are okay with going to my Home Page–you can order a copy of\u00a0our new Georgia Ancestors.\u00a0 And I will send you a copy at the new book price of $35.00.\u00a0 (It will be $45.00 mid-October)<\/p>\n

    PPSS\u00a0 I will also have copies at the Friends of Clayton Library Seminar, Saturday 27 August 2011, at\u00a0St Luke’s United Methodist Church, 3471 Westheimer Rd, Houston TX at 10:00 am.\u00a0 Can you believe?\u00a0 They have so many registrations for\u00a0 that event–all on Southern Research<\/strong>!–that they had to move the seminar to a bigger place where they could accomodate you-all.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 And I am excited about that too.\u3000<\/p>\n

    Just would like a basic course on using the computer and trouble-shooting very basic problems caused when I add a patch to update.<\/p>\n
