BYU's Annual 2006 Computerized Genealogy Conference
In October I announced the dates for the upcoming BYU 2006 Computerized Genealogy Conference. BYU announced the dates March 10-11, 2006 as well as the feature presenter to be Cyndi Howells, webmaster of http://www.cyndislist.com. My mom has just informed me that BYU has updated their website and started registration for this conference and the guest speaker(s) have actually changed, though the dates remain the same.
