following an ancestor from cradle to grave

Description from library website: How much do you really know about your ancestors? You would be surprised how much you do, or don't, know when you take a look at your accumulated information in a new way. Creating a timeline of an individual's life can produce many surprises. It is also a great way to review all the previous research you have done. Timelines give you the opportunity to find out what was going on in the world that affected their life decisions. Take a new look at those elusive ancestors and fill in the blanks of their lives - who knows what you'll discover!! Marcia Iannizzi Melnyk is a professional genealogist who has taught beginning and advanced genealogy courses for more than 15 years. She is the author of The Genealogist's Handbook for New England Research, Fourth Edition, The Weekend Genealogist: Timesaving Techniques for Effective Research, The Genealogist's Question and Answer Book and Family History 101. Presented by the Chelmsford Genealogy Club and funded by the Chelmsford Friends of the Library
