Genealogy research should go beyond finding documents and filling in charts. Include the stories and pictures for your ancestors. Let come alive.
This book outlines a simple process that will aid your research and create pages of information that can be read and understood by all family members. Your research will become faster and more accurate, and your family can enjoy family history. We all have family stories that give insights into the lives of our ancestors. Some are entertaining, and others are more historical. Many others are celebrations of our ethnic and cultural heritage. They all should be saved and repeated for our future generations. However, pieces of these stories are lost as families pass them down from generation to generation. Writing a family history will save them for many generations.
Writing a family history can seem to be a very challenging project for many people.

If you feel you do not have the skills to do this, who in your family can? If you like to do the research, is there someone that can work with you to write it? If you are interested in telling your family stories,
