guide to genealogical research. The author shares the important lessons
(and practical tips) she learned researching her own family’s heritage.
This book will walk you through each step the author took in collecting
and sharing her family’s stories. It will take you even further as she
talks about things she has learned through the publication of a "family
book."
From EHO Review...
In FrontPorch History: Researching and Telling Your Family’s
Stories, Tammy shares how you, too, can collect your own immediate
family stories and the family stories of your older relatives, and
create your own family history book. She gives complete instructions
for putting the book together and for compiling your own family
genealogy. She reviews many different!products and resources useful
to this type of project including genealogy software, family history
and heritage books and kits, and bookmaking supplies and kits. A
section by Peggy Flint tells how to turn this project into a unit
study the whole family can participate in. Perhaps the most important
part of the book is the first chapter. Any project of this magnitude
requires inspiration and long term commitment.!Chapter one serves
up a large dose of inspiration. The remainder of the book with all
its helps and resources including forms and worksheets provides
the hands on help needed to make the project a success. At $9.95
this is a must have book for all those interested in preserving
their family history.
