Did your ancestors live long lives, or did they die young? Were there doctors or midwives in the community? Or did your ancestors depend on home remedies? Do the diseases of 200-300 years ago still survive today? If you have a death certificate –– can you read the codes on them? We look for these answers and others.

Politics frames our lives – from local to national to international. A genealogist must investigate and understand the laws that stood at the time of their ancestors. Courthouses are important because they keep records.

Just collecting records about an ancestor does not tell their story. If we do not analyze the information, we fail as genealogists and family historians. Does the information we collected make sense? How does it tell a story? Are there missing periods of time? We will discuss methods to help facilitate critical thinking.
