I am attending a genealogy conference for the first time and wondered if anyone had any suggestions on what to bring, what to leave at home, what to pack, etc. <[email protected]>

When permitted, my personal first choice is a recording device, but I will say that not often is that permitted as tapes of the sessions are often sold by the event planners/speakers. With that decision made, I would then take just pencil/pen for making any necessary notes on the handouts that are distributed. That works for me. Fred "Fred Frederick" <[email protected]>
