Session 1: One-Step Webpages: A Potpourri of
Genealogical Search Tools
The One-Step website started out as an aid for finding
passengers in the Ellis Island database. Shortly afterwards
it was expanded to help with searching in the 1930 census.
Over the years, it has continued to evolve and today includes
about 300 web-based tools divided into 16 separate categories
ranging from genealogical searches to astronomical calculations
to last-minute bidding on e-bay This presentation will describe
the range of tools available and highlights of each.
Session 2: Case Study: A Complete Genealogy Starting From
Nothing
This lecture presents a case study using the One-Step
Webpages as well as other websites to develop a family history.
It illustrates how, with a minimal amount of initial information,
an entire genealogy can be obtained. It also shows how to
obtain records in spite of name misspelling and how to avoid
accepting wrong information.
