"Your Family Tree in 20 Minutes"

One of the genealogical magazines that I regularly subscribe to arrived yesterday with an article on finding your family tree in "20 minutes" on the cover. I had to laugh out loud before I even opened up to read the "tips" there because I believe that it is misleading to the "newbie" to think for even 20 seconds that they can successfully find their family tree in such a short amount of time, even with all of the fabulous online databases.

As it turns out, there were a variety of tasks that you could accomplish on individual tasks on your family history research in 20 minutes or less, according to the author. Be careful what you promise........

Happy New Year and Success in the Search!
