    3. Please join the Genealogical Society of Pennsylvania on Saturday, May 30th, for "Genealogy Software: Back to Basics." Presented by David Kleiman and Kate Myslinski of Heritage Muse. Lecture and Fair. 9:30 am to 4:00 pm. At the Chester County Historical Society 225 N. High Street, West Chester, PA. Wondering what genealogy software to use? Did you import data to a new program and now have to clean up your files? Does the data you entered years ago fail your current criteria for completeness of inputting, sourcing, and consistency? Want to know how to output your data to share with others? Our speakers will discuss these issues and more to help you understand and use genealogy software programs, merge files, resolve conflicts, clean up old files, identify potential issues, and document sources and repositories. Examples from all major programs will be presented, so you can find the best software for your own use and see how others have resolved similar problems. David M. Kleiman: Publisher, historian, and educator, David has been a genealogist for over 35 years.
