Online Genealogy Videos from Robert Ragan

• How to Use the FamilySearch New Record Search Pilot site Try your own genealogy and family tree searches just like the example in this video shows, and be sure to save the copies of the original records that you find.
• How to Easily Write Your Life Story with this Great Tool If you want to FINALLY write your life story - or even better - have it in print AND in audio, then this is the coolest tool/dictation service you will find anywhere. I use it and love it. Also, you can use it for so many other things like dictating emails, letters, notes to yourself, etc.
• An Easy Way to Create Genealogy "Family Books" that You Can Share with Your Family Here's one way that shows you how to make genealogy books from your genealogy information.
• Genealogy Google Search Basics This short video alone can change the way you look at online genealogy research. However, much, much more is covered in my genealogy courses.
• How the Google Toolbar Can Help in Your Genealogy ResearchThis handy free tool can help reduce the strain on your eyes - and is a must use toolbar for genealogy research.
• Three-part "Mini-Workshop" that can help you overcome the TWO BIGGEST MISTAKES that modern genealogy researchers make: Not Using Genealogy Software to Organize Your Data, and Not Taking the Time to Understand GEDCOM Files.

1. Why GEDCOM files are a genealogy researcher’s best friend This introduction section shows you what GEDCOM files are and begins to solve the mystery and confusion that surrounds them.

2. Genealogy software does all the work for you You will see how to import (look at), export (save your own GEDCOM files) and how easy it is to do.

3. You CAN do it! Here, you will see how to work with GEDCOM files in a different genealogy software program. Also, see a search on one of the many sites on the Internet where you can get GEDCOM files with the surnames that you are researching.

I hope that you enjoy them. I'll have more to come soon.

God Bless You and Yours,

Robert Ragan
