Description

The Internet has made learning about one’s ancestors easier than ever. But it’s also given family researchers a tsunami of websites to navigate and explore, and that can cause confusion. Which ones are trustworthy, and which will leave them empty-handed? This friendly, easy-to-use guide helps would-be genealogists sort through the clutter, strike gold, and unearth the secrets of their family’s past. Brad and Debra Schepp evaluate hundreds of resources (many not well known), recommend the best, offer proven advice for overcoming research obstacles, and explain how to verify the information that turns up. And the Schepps don’t limit the process to the Internet; they offer suggestions for projects readers can complete with their newly uncovered personal histories, encompassing everything from scrapbooking to family reunions.
