Using Timelines to Find Holes in Research October 29, 2016
As genealogists search across their many family lines & surnames they can lose track of some of the gaps in their research. In this talk professional genealogist Joanne Polanshek will describe how using timelines can help us systematically review our past work and find opportunities for further research which can fill in these gaps. Using case studies she will take us, step-by-step, through this process and demonstrate how timelines can both clarify what still needs to be done and resolve some of our most frustrating problems. Classes are held at the Vermont Genealogy Library located on Hegeman Ave, Fort Ethan Allen, Colchester, across from the State Police Building. Classes are from 10:30 to noon and are $5.00. Please visit our website www.vtgenlib.org or call 802-310-9285 for more info.
