As a genealogist and recent transplant to Utah, I thought I would share some tips as a newbie at the Family History Library. I moved here from Atlanta in April to join ProGenealogists and first used the library in May. For those who can&#8217;t pick up and move to Salt Lake City but plan to [...]]]></description>
