Merced County Genealogical Society

Merced County Genealogical Society Program for October 16, 2010

One-Step Webpages:

A Potpourri of Genealogical Search Tools

Stephen Morse

Stephen Morse – of One-Step Webpages – is known nationwide for his internet toolbox. He has given his program to groups all across the country. This program is designed to give us an overview of the most popular tools on his website, tools to save you time searching the internet.

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 200 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 give the highlights of each one.



Come and hear this well-known speaker and learn how to simplify your internet searching.
