Original Records

November11 2022 I love the process of doing Family History work. When things seem to magically appear when they are needed most or least expected. In the past couple of years it seems when I have a question the answer comes. DNA is certainly a large part of the process. Yesterday a book I ordered came in the mail. I had already read a transcription of this small book, but now I have the original document to compare for myself. Getting to the heart of original records is essential. Then sometimes we have to dig hard to come to an understanding of what even one simple word means. At times this may happen when looking at another researchers work. I am so grateful for the ease of access to looking at original records.
