I spent years stuck on my 3rd grandmother's life. I had no confirmed name, no birthplace, nothing. This episode is the story of how one record I almost ignored blew the whole wall open. Ten dollars. A few weeks of waiting and then an envelope that changed my family tree.
I also walk you through exactly how to do this yourself because the document that breaks your brick wall might be only one request away!
Patron supporters get all podcasts a week early-- thanks so much for making this work possible.
