For over 20 years, Bob Dawes<\/strong> shared his computer expertise in many ways. “Bob’s Bytes<\/strong>” was a regular feature in the Quinte Branch newsletter, “The Quinte Searchlight<\/strong>“. Bob created and mentored a “special interest group (SIG)”, a “TECH SIG<\/strong>“, that focused on using computers for genealogical research. A pre-eminent speaker on the “genealogy circuit”, Bob presented often and for a variety of audiences on various topics of interest to family historians.<\/p>\n
