Synopsis

Proven Methods for Scaling the Inevitable Brick Wall

Complications arising from incomplete or missing records, census irregularities, individuals of the same name, and burned courthouses can stop even the most experienced genealogists dead in the tracks.

• Go straight to the answers you need without wading through theory or irrelevant record overviews

• Learn what NOT to do to avoid hitting brick walls in the future.

And it's all brought to you by genealogy's most popular publications, Family Tree Books and Family Tree Magazine!
