Registration is now open for Jackson County Public Library’s free Family Tree for Beginners class from 6 to 7 p.m. April 18 in the computer room at the Seymour Library, 303 W. Second St.

Led by Janet Hensen, information services assistant and former school library media specialist, attendees will learn how to construct their own family trees.

Each person must have basic computer skills or bring someone with them who does. This program is suitable for those beginning to research their family trees and for 4-H, Scout and school projects.

Each student will leave with a binder of family tree forms and a Purdue University genealogy booklet sponsored by the Friends of the Library.

There is a limit of 12 for the program. Registration is required by April 15 by visiting myjclibrary.org/events or calling the library at 812-523-4636.
