Joe Long has over 35 years of hands-on experience researching his family tree. With this book, he brings this knowledge to beginning researchers and adds a twist by including hundreds of hot-links to relevant genealogical websites. As a result, the beginning researcher can quickly learn not only how, but where to start their search for ancestors. Joe has spent countless hours roaming library shelves, digging through courthouse basements, walking cemeteries and staring bleary-eyed at census records on microfilm. With Internet technology, many of these records are now available at the touch of a computer button. However, sound research techniques are still required to create a professional family tree. Joe shows readers the right way to research.
