Using a case study approach, the book takes a single source item - an 1890 marriage certificate purchased at an antiques event - and uses it to highlight the questions you should be asking yourself about your own family documentation and how this can be used as a basis for online research.
Learn how to:
- Access and investigate online records
- Use spreadsheets to record your findings and assess their validity and reliability
- Incorporate your family tree into online programs
- Share your research with friends and family and much more…
