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.
