South Plains Genealogical Society

Using AI for Genealogy Instruction September 21

Monday, September 21. Continuing the series on beginning genealogy taught by Shelle Wells and sponsored by SPGS and the Mahon Library, this session focuses on:

  • AI as a smart assistant
  • Using AI for transcription
  • AI's role in analysis and research help
  • Pitfalls to avoid while using AI
  • AI horror stories

This is a great “aha” class – where [people start seeing how records connect families together in ways Census records cannot.

We meet at 7 p.m. in the Community Room of Mahon Library on 1306 9th St. in Lubbock.

Welcome to SPGS

Are you curious about or do you have a deep desire to know who you are and where your ancestors lived? The South Plains Genealogical Society may be the place for you. Come join us the second Saturday of the month (excluding June, July, August, and December) from 10 a.m. to Noon. We meet in the Community Room of the Mahon Library, located at 1306 9th Street, Lubbock, Texas.

The Mahon Library has more than 10,000 genealogical resource books available to the public. If you have a question or just want to come and take a look, we welcome your interest. We have resources pertaining to local, state, national and world genealogy.

Membership is not required to attend our meetings but we would love to have you as a member. We have great camaraderie and enjoy the exchange of information at our meetings. In the past we have hosted some great guest speakers, including our very own SPGS members, to address the membership. Membership also includes South Plains Roots, our award-winning newsletter, which is very informative and fun to read.

As we like to say: “How can we know who we are, if we don’t know who our ancestors were?”
