All of the classes can be accessed on www.familysearch.org by clicking on Free Online Classes on the home page.     FOOTNOTE Unlike any other historical collection on the web, the Interactive Census Collection has the unique ability to connect people related to ancestors found on the historical documents.  Simply by clicking the Im Related button for a name on the document will identify you as a descendent and also list others that have done the same.  Never before has it been as easy to connect with distant relatives through historical documents. Finding a record featuring an ancestors name provides not only an emotional experience but also a connection with the past.  On Footnote.com it’s more than just finding a name on a census record.  Interactive tools allow people to enhance the documents by adding their own contributions including:                       Photos                       Stories                       Comments                       Other related documentCheck out the Interactive Census at Footnote - Free for a limited time.   Who Do You Think You Are?
