What started as a simple search for one ancestor’s military service quickly became an exciting journey beyond the family tree! In this episode, I’ll discuss the challenge of doing a non-traditional genealogy research project to support writing objectives and dealing with citations (or failing to capture them initially).
Join me on this journey, where we’ll dive into the discoveries, tools, and strategies that brought these soldiers' stories to life. Whether you’re a seasoned genealogist or just curious, this series is for you!
