A Genealogy Short-Course


If you are just beginning your genealogy research, you need to know the basic "how-to" in order to be successful. I've developed a Basic Genealogy course to help you. I am in the process of adding the lesson materials to this site. There are a total of 10 lessons, so you will be able to tell when all are here by checking the number of pages links below.

  1. Lesson One: Where to Start
  2. Lesson Two: Documentation
  3. Lesson Three: Vital Records
  4. Lesson Four: Military, Land & Tax Records
  5. Lesson Five: Wills, Probate & Cemetery Records
  6. Lesson Six: Immigration & Census Records
  7. Lesson Seven: Writing Queries
  8. Lesson Eight: Word Meanings
  9. Lesson Nine: Genealogical Reports
  10. Lesson 10: Searching Helps
  11. This course is also offered on Yahoo groups for those people who want to have email access directly with the course developer. General genealogical updates are also posted via email at the group discussion site. For information visit: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/yahoo-cls-basicgenealogy/

    If you have any questions, please email me. Be sure to include the words "genealogy course" in the subject line so your email won't be deleted as spam.

    Happy tree climbing!
