Will you be publishing classes for October? I will be in Salt Lake City 29 Sep – 5 October to do research at The Family History Library.
Elaine – usually the schedule for the next month’s classes at the Family History Library is sent to me the last week of the previous month. I will post it as soon as I get it. Cheers!
