Article Published February 25, 2003 Family Tree Maker Workshop in Woodstock (Ontario) Sponsored by the Oxford County Branch of the Ontario Genalogical Society 
Family Tree Maker WorkshopTo be sponsored by the Oxford Branch of the OGS Presenter: Rick Roberts of Global Genealogy and History Bookstore Rick Roberts is a publisher, retailer, and on-line entrepreneur, specializing in genealogy and history reference materials and maps. His curiosity about his own family history began during summer vacations at his grandmother’s farm. She was a great story-teller with a wonderful collection of family photographs and documents. Rick’s hobby became his profession in 1992, when he co-founded Global Genealogy with his wife Sandra. They recognized a need for a single source where family historians could buy a wide variety of genealogy reference and how-to materials. The business began with catalog sales, then online sales, and then a physical store was opened in downtown Milton. Since 1997, Rick has published more than eighty Canadian history & genealogy reference books under the imprint Global Heritage Press. He also publishes the on-line genealogy magazine called The Global Gazette. Rick lecturers at national and regional genealogy conferences across Canada and the United States.
