Spreadsheets 101: Excel, the Genealogist's Underutilized Tool

Genealogist Jeanne L. Bloom will speak. She will explain how family history researchers can use Microsoft Excel for tracking family history research or resources, abstracting and analysis.

She conducts research projects for government agencies, attorneys, authors, newspapers, television-production companies, heir-search firms, oil-and-gas land lease companies, professional genealogists and family researchers. Bloom researched the ancestry of actor-comedian Jason Sudeikis, for the television series Who Do You Think You Are? and appeared in the episode that first aired in May 2012.

She is a member of number of genealogical societies including the Jewish Genealogical Society of Illinois, the Illinois State Genealogical Society and the Chicago Genealogical Society. She is a trustee and treasurer of the Board for Certification of Genealogists.

The JGSI meeting facilities will open at 12:30 p.m. to accommodate members/guests who want to use genealogy library materials, get help with genealogy websites on the Internet, or ask genealogical questions before the main program begins. For more information phone 312-666-0100.
