R U Using PERSI? You Should BE!

So what is PERSI and how do you search it? Our friends over at FindMyPast have done another excellent job of providing guidance on how to us PERSI https://blog.findmypast.com/ho-1771212661.html

If I'm not mistaken I believe Ancestry also has PERSI on its website. Of course, Murphy's Law just stepped in and I can't find it! If anyone does locate it, please post the link, or send it to me so everyone can find it. Thanks.

There is another good article about PERSI here https://familysearch.org/wiki/en/Periodical_Source_Index_%28PERSI%29


Cheers,
Pat

    Hi Pat! Some public libraries carry Heritage Quest (which has PERSI in it) patrons can use from home using their public library card # and the pin is the last 4 digits of their phone number.
    Regina Public Library - http://www.reginalibrary.ca/databases/db_genealogy.html

    Edmonton Public Library - http://www.epl.ca/resources/genealogy/

    Sadly, our Strathcona County Library in Sherwood Park doesn't carry Heritage Quest ... it wasn't used enough, so they gave it up :-(

    BTW, I can't see PERSI on ancestry.com either.
    Can't wait to see you in Sherwood Park - a few weeks away!
