Carolyn Lea will present Stephen P. Morse's "One-Step Tools" at the Computer Club of Oklahoma City meeting at 9 a.m. Saturday at CCOKC Resource Center, 3000 United Founders Blvd, Suite 201.

The genealogy group is dedicated to helping family history researchers use a computer to assist in the search, organization and publication of information about their family histories.
