Description
Starting the research journey into a family's history is a daunting prospect. It's hard to see the Family Tree in a forest of certificates, online databases and census documents. The journey is even more confusing when it has to wend its way through the fog of using online genealogy services and the red tape required by government registrars around the world. "Finding the Nuts in the Family Tree" steps the beginning genealogist through searching the repositories of family records of Australia and England. It is an invaluable guide to the how, when, where, what and why of Family History for the beginner - answering such questions as;
"Where do I start? How do I record what I find?"
"I can't find a birth record for Grandma! What do I do now?"
"Great Grandpa died a soldier. How do I find out where he is buried?"
"Grandma says her Grandpa was a convict. How can I find out if this true?"
Christine Sutton has been a genealogist and family historian for over thirty years. She has experienced many of the pitfalls of starting out in Family History, has knocked down many brick walls. In this guide she has created a road map to help you navigate the way forward.
Chris holds a Diploma in Family History from the University of Tasmania, and qualifications in Education from several Universities. With a background in teaching, learning design and course development for all ages, she has a strong commitment to lifelong learning. Now retired, she spends much of her time sharing what she has learned with those commencing their journey into their heritage.
