Program Description:
 
The Notes on Display program is for anyone considering the task of
tracing their own or someone else's lineage into the past.  This
program must be used in conjunction with the Genealogy on Display
program provided on another diskette for maximum results.  As any-
one who has undertaken this work has found out, the effort involved
in keeping track of the huge amount of data accumulated, is over-
powering.  This nifty program does that for the researcher with 
practically no effort at all.  The investigator merely enters a
record for each find made into the database with a short note des-
cribing the find to clarify matters in the future.  To aid in the
process, the user will enter some relevant facts, such as, the
person to whom this find relates, the source of the find (i.e. city 
state, church, etc.), the type of find (birth record, grave
stone, etc.) and the date is usually helpful.  After a short while
a huge database will have been built with facts relating to many
of the people in the past.  Now this information can be viewed in
some order and be made sense of.  You may view a selected person,
source or even type from the database.  This data will be presented
either on the screen or via the printed page.  I think anyone doing
this type of work will find this program a breeze to use and help
in the reseach.  Requires a minimum of 320K RAM.  A printer and
two floppy disk drives would be nice.
