About this product

Product Information

This book is the ideal companion for anybody researching their family tree. A consultant on the hit TV series Who Do You Think You Are?, Helen Osborn provides advice and inspiration on methods and problem-solving and helps the amateur family historian understand what successful professionals do to get results, and why we should copy them. Over ten chapters, it examines the various themes that affect the success or failure of all genealogy research. This begins with an overview of common challenges genealogists encounter and continues with an examination of how to both search effectively and find the right documentary sources. Using examples from her own family history as well as client work, teacher and professional genealogist Helen Osborn demonstrates how to get the most from documents, analyze problems and build research plans. These subjects lead on to recording results, how to ensure relationships are correctly proved, organizing information and presenting your findings. Although the book deals mainly with research in England and Wales, the skills taught are easily transferable to research in other countries. This book will be particularly valuable to anyone who is stuck with their research, in addition to those who are keen to learn about advanced skills and methods used by genealogists.

Unexpectedly one of the best books on research and genealogy I have read.
I loved this book. When I first saw it I thought..."oh oooo" it is going to be written in very heavy text book style, as I was expecting the usual large soft covered book, lot's of illustrations etc. Well it was amazing, hard covered, beautifully presented, well written, and I couldn't put it down. Every time I had spare minutes I would pick it up and read. Now it's time to re read it and note the bits I really want to remember. But all of it was really useful, I didn't feel the need to flick over any chapters. It was very relevant and, even though as an ex Librarian I thought I knew about researching and citing sources, this blew me away. Especially of course as a mad keen genealogist. I hope Helen Osborn writes more books. I will be buying them. This is not a hard book to read, it flows ... I loved this book.
