Abstract
The main section of the dictionary of ancestry research is arranged alphabetically and contains descriptions and locations of virtually all the historical records likely to be used by genealogists, and a number of features new to manuals of family history, including explanations of obsolete terms, translations of the most-used Latin documents, and details of the numerous family history societies. Over a thousand subjects are dealt with, supported with illustrations of typical documents.
The dictionary is preceded by a guide to genealogical reseearch aimed at eliminating the frustration common among less experienced researchers, and explaining the techniques employed by professional genealogists.
