Join us for the February Family Tree Brickwalls Club webinar, at which Mike Gould will be sharing strategies and tips to help us each assess the accuracy of our family history research. We all make mistakes from time to time – the key is in spotting and correcting them.

How to be confident in your family tree.

Mike Gould takes you through strategies and tips for increasing your confidence that your tree is correct.
There are many reasons for wanting to be as confident as you can that the family tree that you have constructed is correct:

You don’t want to end up tracing the wrong family

You want to take pride in your work and minimise errors

You don’t want to mislead others

You don’t want to waste time carrying out research based on a mistake.

Let Mike guide you through some hints and tips for improving the quality of your research. We all make mistakes from time to time – the key is in spotting and correcting them.

PS Mike Gould will also be presenting a follow-up webinar in June at Brickwalls, Skills & Solutions Club on this topic: part 2, to aid you further in checking that you have your facts straight

About the speaker

Mike Gould has been involved in family history research for over twenty years.  He has contributed articles to Family Tree and other publications and eventually decided to write a book on how to research family history. He drew on his experience of systems engineering management in his “day job” to design a new type of book that would be whatever the reader needed at any one time: a family history reference book, an instruction manual, an encyclopaedia, a history book or an explanation of the legal context of Acts of Parliament relevant to our ancestors. Above all, it needed to be “a good read”. It is available from Amazon in paperback £35: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Family-History-Manual-Strategies-researching/dp/B0D5HLZNRF
