Book
Finding your family tree : a beginner's guide to researching your genealogy
Summary:
"Genealogy offers you the opportunity to understand who you are through your family history. With this knowledge, you can embrace your identity, understand your own health and wellness, reconnect with your roots and family origins, and find an overall sense of wholeness. Finding Your Family Tree: A Beginner's Guide to Researching Your Family Tree is an ideal starting point for your own journey of self-discovery. You are eager to learn your ancestry, but in these disconnected times it can be hard to figure out on your own. With author and expert genealogist Sharon L Morgan as your guide, you can explore even the thorniest family tree. Sharon shows you how to embrace the world of genealogical research and provides guidance for underrepresented groups, such as African Americans and Native Americans, and anyone else who is interested in connecting with their family background. Beyond exploring the practical challenges of researching your family history, this book will show you what's most exciting about this research--the unique family stories and histories you'll discover, but also the essential truths that bind and connect us all." -- From publisher's description.
