SUMMARY:General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Join us starting at 10:30 for hospitality and mingling. The business meeting starts at 11:00\, followed by our featured speaker around 11:30. \nOur speaker will be Shirley Sloat. Her presentation is titled “It takes a village…… to produce a book preserving the memories of the only living grandchild of two Georgia slaves who came in a wagon with nine children to Wheelock\, Texas\, in 1894”. \nShirley met Estelle Mitchell Adams at an aqua exercise class in 2013 and the two formed a friendship. Estelle shared many written documents about the Negro churches\, schools\, and cemetery in Wheelock. When Estelle showed Shirley that she remembered the names of all but about 12 of the 40 students attending the Wheelock Colored School in 1934\, Shirley knew that she had to help to capture Estelle’s voice and memories for the public. \nTheir collaboration has led to the publication of “Remembering Negro Life in Wheelock\, Texas – Churches\, Schools\, Cemetery\, Families in the 1900s” (copies of the new book will be available for sale at the meeting). \nThe intention of the presentation is to provide a suggested path through some of the intricacies of creating a book in general\, to shed some light on the challenges of creating one with a story teller\, and to give courage to those who might have been afraid to try publishing their work. It will include a brief talk from Estelle\, now 89\, followed by Shirley’s account of the various events and help provided along the way by people and organizations like the Texas Portal\, University of North Texas\, Dallas Public Library\, and DGS members\, with particular thanks to Ed Millis who just likes to make books and who tells all about things like achieving an ISBN number. \n\nShirley Remnant Sloat was a computer professional at Texas Instruments and Sun Oil until she retired in 1992. She immediately joined the Dallas Genealogical Society as a Life Member and began working at the Dallas Public Library’s 8th floor volunteer desk. \nShe joined a small genealogy study group who encouraged her to expand her volunteer work into other areas of DGS. Over the years she chaired the publicity committee\, and served on the DGS Board as VP Membership\, Executive VP Fundraising\, and President in 2005-6. \nShe received DGS awards for the Writing Contest\, Volunteer of the Year\, Historical Preservation\, and the Award of Merit. She has received the Dallas Public Library Award of Excellence twice\, and the A.C. Green Award from the Friends of the Dallas Public Library. \nShe still volunteers on the 8th floor on Wednesdays\, and is a proofreader for DGS publications. \nShe has spent the past two years organizing\, editing and indexing\, and posting online and in book format the remembrances of a close friend who is the last living granddaughter of Georgia slaves who came to Wheelock\, Texas in 1894. \n\nEstelle is the author of three other publications that are available on the Portal to Texas History: \n\nThe History Of Wheelock Afro-American Cemetery\, Wheelock\, Robertson County\, Texas (View on the Portal)\nPreserving the History of Wheelock Colored School\, Wheelock\, Robertson County\, Texas (View on the Portal)\nThe Black Churches in Wheelock\, Robertson County\, Texas (View on the Portal)\n\n

SUMMARY:Technology Special Interest Group
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Bruce Moore \nWhen working with large numbers of photos\, traditional file system level folders and names can quickly become unwieldy. Adobe Lightroom\, Adobe Photoshop Elements\, Difikam and Apple Photo are a few of the photo library management tools that make it easy to tag images keywords\, add descriptions and captions\, and automatically recognize faces in larger numbers of images. This 90-minutes session will provide an overview of Adobe Lightroom and how to use it for three major workflow cases: \n\nScanning a set of images and identifying people in each image\nCorrecting exposure\, contrast and other problems on a group of images from a single roll of film\nPublishing a set of images to Flickr\, Facebook and a website

SUMMARY:General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Join us starting at 10:30 for hospitality and mingling. The business meeting starts at 11:00\, followed by our featured speaker around 11:30. \nOur presentation is “Finding German Ancestors: Their Information is Not All on the Internet” by Bernard N. Meisner\, Ph.D. \nDownload The Handout\nTo locate records about your family in Germany it is essential to determine their home town through an exhaustive search of U.S. records\, since most German records are maintained at the local level (town or parish). Also\, due to wars and boundary changes your family’s records may now be located in another state or country. In this presentation I will review how to identify the home town\, demonstrate the use of finding aids to identify where civil and church records might be located\, and provide links to online resources for correspondence and reading/interpreting German printing and handwriting. \nBernard Meisner\, Ph.D. is a genealogist and lecturer based in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex. He began researching his family over 25 years ago and enjoys sharing lessons learned from those experiences\, including his mistakes. Although he knew only one grandparent (his maternal grandfather) he has successfully identified all of his great-great grandparents and several triple- and quadruple-great grandparents. He is the president and social media chair of the Mid-Cities Genealogical Society\, and is a member of the National Genealogical Society and the Texas State Genealogical Society. \nBernard recently retired from the National Weather Service Southern Region Headquarters where he was the Acting Chief of the Science & Technology Services Division. He is certified as a consulting meteorologist by the American Meteorological Society and holds a teaching certificate from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. He has taught at the Universities of Texas\, Oklahoma and St. Thomas (Houston). Bernard earned a B.S. in physics/German from Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh\, and an M.S. and Ph.D. in meteorology from the University of Hawaii.
