Hi Rosemary at FB you can create groups where you can make private and invite only ones you know are part of the tree.They are the only ones who can see your pictures and infoi also,.Its the same as on your own page it can be made private too. I have mine private.Only reason I did it at FB is many of my cousins are distant relations are there and were keen to see some family pics and info.I have my tree at other places too but have found this is a simpe way for me to share without them having to jhooin other sites.I have had great responce.
Btw I have a Dyer in my family.Way back on great great grans side I think.

I must admit to not being very keen to post Family Tree details on Facebook. I prefer to have my tree on the Tribal Pages website where I can have more control over who can access what. I upload family tree photos to that site also. I keep my Facebook information to an absolute minimum.

It's winter - are we all hibernating? There hasn't been a lot of group action lately. How about sharing a favourite resource or publicising a local event?

I notice that Liz Pidgeon has listed a number of genealogy events being held in Melbourne in the coming months. If you are in the vicinity it would be worthwhile to check the list on Liz's page..

I'm into Week 3 of the NIGS Australian and New Zealand Genealogy course and can recommend the tutor, Kerry Farmer, her course material and the course. If you are a beginning genealogist and would like to learn about Australian Resources this course provides a convenient way to learn. I have blogged about some of my experiences at http://geniaus.blogspot.com

This website is about not only the convicts but also their families and descendants. It is easily navigated and looks very interesting and useful for Australian genealogy.

Two years ago I did 2 genealogy online courses, 1 being the Aus & NZ course and the other on Eastern European Ancestors. My only mistake was doing the 2 of them in the same month, however despite that, I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone. Irrespective of how long you have been researching, there are always new things to learn. Kerry Farmer is excellent as a lecturer and always ready to give tips and point us in the right direction when we need it. I still find it a great reference point for when I get stuck or just need that new link to look at. I am sure you will get a lot of enjoyment from doing this course.
