52 Weeks To Better Genealogy – Challenge 49

Week 49: Check out the National Archives Genealogy page. There also is a Start Your Genealogy Research page that may be of interest. Don’t try to do any research, just click links and explore the contents. The goal of this week’s challenge is to introduce you to these collections, or for more experienced genealogists, remind you of what they contain. If you are doing this challenge from outside the United States, explore the national archives of your country for collections pertinent to genealogy. Some resources include the National Archives of Australia, the National Archives (UK) and more. If you write a genealogy blog, you may share and interesting items you found with your readers.

This challenge runs from Saturday, December 4, 2010 through Friday, December 10, 2010.

Will there be a concise list of the 2010 52 Weeks To Better Genealogy? Like the one Amy posted for the 2009 Jump Start Your Genealogy Blog shown at http://wetree.blogspot.com/2009/01/jump-start-your-genealogy-blog-52-ideas.html. I was thinking that Amy also posted the 2010 list in it’s entirety but I may be mistaken.

We will have a list and I am trying to convince the Texas Waffle Lady (aka Amy) to produce a workbook with all these prompts!

Workbook? Awsome!

Please? Amy, Please?

I was able to plow through a “brick wall” using incredible information I found through the NARA website. To see the kinds of information I was able to get specifically, check out my blog: http://jonesfamilymatters.blogspot.com/2009/06/britton-wainright-part-ii.html
