    As I am not currently a webinar member I appreciated the scenes with the links. Learned many helpful things in continuing my research. I just keep piling more and more things to learn and don’t get to the actual searching. That is why I haven’t become a webinar member,,, need to do what I have learned.

    Excellent Webinar – Lots of new Websites I didn’t know about that I can dive into for more Family History Information.

    Excellent webinar!!!

    Excellent webinar…learned about so many websites I’ve not searched yet!

    Excellent! I knew about a fair amount of these sites, but there were some I’d never seen before. As a genealogical librarian, I’m always looking for new resources. I thoroughly enjoyed the presentation. Since Dianne is very much into NC research, could she possibly do something like this for that subject? NC is where a majority of my people were from back in the day. 😉

    Excellent, fresh material but too much to absorb at one time. But will re-watch, probably a couple of times.

    Excellent, good resources most of which are FREE which is always good.

    Excellent, really learned a lot! Thank you.

    Excellent. Speaker extremely knowledgeable. Class should be 2 hours not 50 minutes. Learned alot!!

    excellent-she gave alot of good web sites and talked slow enough for me to write them down too.

    Exceptional webinar today. Lots and lots of info.

    Extremely interesting. I know I will be able to use some of the sites for research.

    Fabulous!

    Fantastic presentation. Now I have more websites to check out. Thank you

    Fantastic speaking with priceless information and resources. I’d attend one of her webinars anytime! Thank you.

    hard to believe so many sites people aren’t aware of

    I agree with the other commenter — nearly all of the 50 websites were NEW to me. Thanks!

    I always appreciate Diane’s vast knowledge of resources!

    I am 70 years old! So many sites and soooooo little time. I certainly have no reason to be bored — in fact, I may pray for boredom time!

    I am going to be busy!

    I cannot wait to try out these sites!

    I found a couple of websites I didn’t know about. Great presentation.

    I liked how she gave a bit of information on each resource and some idea of what it looked like. She did talk VERY fast just like she said.
