Real Research on the Web
Discontinued since almost every topic has an online portion.
Reviews the basic steps of genealogical research while showing useful internet sites that contain images of "real records", indexes, or information about where to obtain the records needed to do real research. See the results from contacting new cousins and researchers. Learn how the speaker was able to contact and eventually meet cousins in Slovenia that were still living in the village and house where his grandmother was born.
