For the first time . . . a book that looks on the comic side of genealogy! Here you'll meet the people and situations you're already familiar with--the BORE, the BLUEBLOOD, the OLD MASTER, and the BRIEFCASE MAGNET, and a clutch of dissembling officials, wet-nosed beginners, and tongue-clucking harridans--but this time the meeting will drive you wild with laughter. You'll learn about the latest techniques used by county clerks in repelling genealogists, about projector fatigue, and about acceptable and unacceptable behavior in graveyards. And you'll read about the sins of the D.A.R., research trip survival tactics, sadism in the county courthouse, the banality of workshops and seminars, the proper etiquette in prying information from reluctant relatives, and much, much more. This work is guaranteed to keep you sane and keep you laughing. |

IN THE BLOOD (A Genealogical Crime Mystery). 110,000 words.
** One of Amazon UK's 'Best Books of 2011'. A 'Kindle Customer Favourite' with over 90 Amazon UK reviews **
DESCRIPTION
Family history was never supposed to be like this…
A dark secret locked in the past. A family historian trying against the odds to unlock it.
When American genealogist, Jefferson Tayte, accepted his latest assignment, he had no idea it might kill him. But while murder was never part of the curriculum, he is kidding himself if he thinks he can walk away from this one.
Driven by the all-consuming irony of being a genealogist who doesn’t know who his own parents are, Tayte soon finds that the assignment shares a stark similarity to his own struggle. Someone has gone to great lengths to erase an entire family bloodline from recorded history and he’s not going home until he’s found out why. After all, if he’s not good enough to find this family, how can he ever expect to be good enough to someday find his own?
Set in Cornwall, England, past and present, Tayte's research centres around the tragic life of a young Cornish girl, a writing box, and the discovery of a dark family secret that he believes will lead him to the family he is looking for. Trouble is, someone else is looking for the same answers and they will stop at nothing to find them.

Because so many people live hundreds or thousands of miles from their 18th or 19th century ancestral homes, on-site cemetery research often has to wait for a family vacation or business trip. How frustrating to find a clue about a family homestead, only to be prevented by distance to visit in person.
For genealogists, cemeteries can contain a treasure house of clues for further research. The inscription on just one stone can contain a maiden name, a place of birth, the names of children or wives, and cause of death. The carvings on the stone, themselves, can symbolically reflect religious beliefs or the family’s expression of grief.
Today, thanks to the Internet, the possibility of locating family burial sites without leaving home is excellent. Instead of indefinitely postponing cemetery research, you can now search the Web for cemetery transcriptions, headstone records, and even photographs.
