Searching Your Family Tree |
| |
A beginner's guide to genealogy; was first syndicated to newspapers in 1977 and again in 1982. While it has been updated to reflect such things as new addresses, it obviously doesn't deal with how you might effectively use them in genealogy work, since it was written before the days of home computers. Those experienced with computers will readily see applications in research, recordkeeping and printing out material. |

Advice for Effective Searches |
| |
The Online Advice feature will ask you questions about what you already know about your ancestry. Your answers to the questions help create a customized plan on what you might do and where you might look in order to develop your research more fully. This feature emphasizes online records so that it is easier to perform your research using your computer. All in all, this makes your Internet searching more effective. The advice feature will provide suggestions tailored to your ancestry on census records, birth records, marriage records, death records, obituaries, ship manifests, naturalization records, and church records. |
