READER REVIEW
"
Donna shares how she "got bitten" by the genealogy bug. She imparts her amazement at how much can be learned about the history of this country as well as one's own family by researching one's family tree. And what's more amazing is that she was able to go back with her family to the 1600s in England, over 400 years.The author has a website where she is asked many "how to" questions by the participants. She advises one to use a computer for their research and seems to describe the use of genealogy software as an easy task and quite intuitive. She identifies many excellent genealogy websites for the new user, some of which I hadn't known about despite my history of 20 years of searching for my family tree, much of it on the internet. The author provides sample interview questions for eliciting past stories from family elders. She gives quite a few tips on how to organize your materials to make the best use of your time. She includes everything a "newby" to the genealogy research field will need to get started and more. And for those with more experience, she includes tips on how to break down the "brick walls" that researchers inevitably encounter and she advises readers to challenge the assumptions in family lore and stories when the brick wall is hit. She also identifies many of the pitfalls inherent in requested records. And if you've ever gone to a courthouse to search without preparing yourself for the kinds of questions you'll need to ask, you will appreciate the author's advice about getting ready first. You'll save yourself time in the long run.
