Citing Sources

Tonight I am speaking at the Corona Genealogy Society,http://www.coronagensoc.org/, about Citing Sources. As always, I have added some resources that are not on the handout.

Now, please remember this is a partial list and does not include resources already on the handout. The following are some good ideas for writing family histories. **Please note, I did not put these in proper citation format.
