Technology for Genealogists
Thomas MacEntee will answer questions from forms submitted and if time permits will take questions from attendees at the meeting.
Speaker: Thomas MacEntee
You’ve read Thomas’ bio before as he was our first virtual speaker in 2020. He was so well received we invited him back to talk about Technology for Genealogists and answer some of our specific questions. You may have heard that he is semi-retiring soon and will be spending more time in Palm Springs, CA.
Thomas MacEntee is a genealogy professional specializing in using technology and social media to improve genealogy research and to connect with the family history community.
What happens when a “tech guy” with a love for history gets laid off during The Great Recession of 2008? You get Thomas MacEntee, a genealogy professional based in the United States who is also a blogger, educator, author, social media connector, online community builder and more. Thomas has over 42 years of experience researching family history.
Thomas was laid off after a 25-year career in the information technology field, so he started his own genealogy-related business called High Definition Genealogy. Currently Thomas shares many of his articles and videos for free at Genealogy Bargains.com!
Thomas describes himself as a lifelong learner with a background in a multitude of topics who has finally figured out what he does best: teach, inspire, instigate, and serve as a curator and go-to-guy for concept nurturing and inspiration. Thomas is a big believer in success, and that we all succeed when we help each other find success.
This will be a hybrid meeting. You will have to register only if you are attending via Zoom.
The virtual doors open at 12:45 pm so everyone can get setup.
The business meeting starts at 1:00 pm and the guest speaker approximately 1:30 pm, after a 5 minute break.
