Below are some topics we look forward to posting about this spring:

History and Genealogy -- This is a new series that will begin this spring. When you begin to research your family history, there is an inherent curiosity regarding the historical context 

Beginner Genealogy -- because there is so much to cover when starting your research, we will continue this series throughout the winter and into the spring. The cold weather months are a perfect time to start your genealogical research in a warm, cozy library or archive, or at home! 

Archival Resources -- In this series we will profile different record types and include examples and visuals when available. 

Family History Case Study -- Sometimes the best way to begin your own research is by taking a look at someone else's. Family History Case Study presents some of Tangled Branches Genealogy's family history research.

Ancestor of the Day -- An always popular topic and very fun way to spend time researching! Probably more like "Ancestor of the Week."

Genetics -- The human genome is filled with information about our ancestors! We will begin to explore why genetics is becoming so important to family historians and genealogists.
