Finding Your Elusive Ancestors
Doing a "Resonably Exhaustive Search"
The first element of the Genealogical Proof Standard is "to do a reasonably exhaustive search." In this presentation, Randy Seaver will explain the GPS, take us on a whirlwind tour through traditional and onlin resources that should be included in a search, discuss his favorite search strategies and techniques, and introduce several case studies of his still elusive ancestors.
