RLP 105: Rootsweb and Genealogies

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about using RootsWeb and FamilySearch Genealogies to view family trees that users have uploaded to the internet. These resources are helpful in your "literature survey" - the search you do at the beginning of a research project to determine what has already been uncovered about a research subject. Join us as we discuss our experience with using these free family tree platforms to search and share our family trees.</span></p> <p><strong>Links</strong></p> <p><a href= "https://familylocket.com/online-genealogies-discovering-the-source/"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Online Genealogies: Discovering the Source</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">by Diana at Family Locket</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">2018 article about how</span> <a href= "https://blog.eogn.com/2018/01/10/rootsweb-is-currently-unavailable-and-probably-will-remain-that-way-for-some-time/"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">RootsWeb [was] Unavailable</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">by Dick Eastman at EOG</span></p> <p><a href="https://wc.rootsweb.com/search"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">RootsWeb World Connect Person Search</span></a></p> <p><a href= "https://www.familysearch.org/search/family-trees"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">FamilySearch Genealogies</span></a></p> <p><a href= "https://familylocket.com/product/research-like-a-pro-e-course/"><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Research Like a Pro eCourse</span></a></p> <p><a href= "https://familylocket.com/product/research-like-a-pro-study-group-wed-1/"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Study Group</span></a> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">- more information and email list</span></p> <p><a href="https://amzn.to/2x0ku3d"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Research Like a Pro: A Genealogist's Guide</span></a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">by Diana Elder with Nicole Dyer on Amazon.com</span></p> <p><strong>Thank you</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Thanks for listening!
