For those new to genealogy, we offer the Basic Genealogy Course. This 8-week course is designed to introduce students to the major resoure options and processes used in performing genealogical research, including many valuable research tools available. The course is taught the first Tuesday in October, with each 1 hour session starting at 7:00 pm.
Classes are normally held at the Melbourne Public Library on Fee Ave., however, we have temporarily suspended in-person classes and are now offering the 8 session introduction course online via classroom video conference via "Zoom.com."
The full session for non-members of the Society is the cost of an annual membership, currently $25.00 per year. Course materials/handouts are emailed to students registered for the course.
Online Course Schedule: Each Tues. 7pm - 8pm : First Tuesday of October.
Class size may be limited to provide more personal attention. Pre-registration and payment is required.
Cost Includes: Full eight week online course plus annual membership to GSSB.
Notes: A home printer is recommended to print course materials. No cost to current members (with pre-registration).
A current member can pay for the Fall course to automatically renew your membership in the society for the following year.
(The Society reserves the right to add a charge for supplies and handouts to students if there is a return to in-person classes)
