It wasn’t long ago that family historians had to spend significant time searching through archives and microfilm looking for a single record. You can bet that when they found it, they studied that record carefully and gathered every possible detail from it! Today, however, there are so many records easily available online that it can be tempting to quickly glance at a record, save it, and move on to the next one. In this online lecture, Senior Genealogist Rhonda R. McClure will make the case for slowing down and scrutinizing each precious record you find. She’ll provide strategies for finding often-overlooked details in records that can provide clues about your ancestors’ lives and the times that they lived in.
This syllabus is intended to accompany our online lecture It Was There All Along: How to Examine Records for Overlooked Clues and Details (archived recording as of 08/26/25): ). It includes a reference for all resources mentioned in the session, plus links to many others.
