The best book about American Genealogy Period!,
I went through a lot of genealogy books looking for the right one to help me along on my search for my ancestors.When I hit the book THE SOURCE A GUIDEBOOK OF AMERICAN GENEALOGY, I hit paydirt. It is my bible to my geneological research. It covers every conceiveable catagory and helps the beginner as well as the pro on where to search out answers, where to get information on vital records, tracking through lineage organizations and individual chapters on select ethnic groups.One of the best chapters is on Tracking Urban Ancestors for those of us who are tracking relations who lived in big cities. This book should be on every family historians home library shelf

A “MUST have” for family historians!!!,
FROM THE BOOKSHELF: THE SOURCE: A Guidebook of American Genealogy
DearREADERS, One of the most useful books for those of us starting (and continuing) to pursue our American pedigrees was revised and republished by Ancestry Publishing Company in 191997. THE SOURCE is just that, an invaluable source, referencing:
Major record sources: family, vital, census, church, court, land, tax, military, institution and business
Published genealogical sources: city directories, newspapers, genealogy indexes and compiled biographies
Special resources: tracking immigrants, urban ancestors, Native American, Spanish/Southwest, Black, Asian, Jewish-American, computers and heredity & lineage societies)
Appendices include: addresses of regional Federal Archives, state historical archives, historical societies, research libraries, “Where to Write for Vital Records..”, genealogy societies and genealogy book publishers
Lou and Sandra have written some of the chapters, and have called upon other well-respected genealogy experts to compose the other chapters. This book is so big, it can be used like an encyclopedia! However, I especially like to curl up and read it when I get stuck in a rut using just one or two types of records. This book reminds me to broaden my scope of research!
Regards, Myrt
