Timelines for Genealogy: a powerful research tool

Do you have an ancestor who refuses to reveal vital facts about their lives? Are they lacking parents, or do they disappear without trace? Maybe you are preparing to write up your family story, or you are trying to work out where to go next. If so, you need a detailed timeline; something much more than might be created by your genealogy software. Well constructed timelines are a valuable summary of an individual’s life and a working document to inform your ongoing research. This session will provide step by step advice on producing just such a working document. By the end of the session you will be able to create a powerful research tool.
