Join The Genealogy Center for Controlling Genealogy Clutter Week and learn the numerous ways to clean up your family history research.

This lecture will discuss all aspects of writing a compiled genealogy-style family history from considerations before beginning the project, to indexing and sharing it when complete. Its primary focus will be the technique of extracting all information from each record or note in a genealogist’s files and adding it to the draft history, one record at a time.
