WCGS Transcribing Workshop

4016 Carya Dr.
Raleigh, NC 27610
 
By popular request, Diane L. Richard, editor of our journal WCGS Treasures, has agreed to conduct a training session for all who are interested in learning about transcribing historical documents.  This is a skill useful for both producing publishable material for the Journal as well as for own our family history research.
 
The program will consist of a presentation with tips and examples followed by a "live" hands-on transcription (with a buddy) session.  Coming to this workshop does not obligate you to participate in future sessions, but we are looking forward to meeting on a regular basis to work together on transcriptions for the Journal.  Everyone is welcome!
 
Please bring a laptop to the session if you have one (not required).
