Considering Age When Researching Your Ancestors
Considering ‘Age’ when creating your family trees is important. Age is heavily entwined with dates and events that happened in and around your ancestor’s life. It is a small fact that is often underused, ignored, overlooked, confused, wrongly transcribed, and incorrectly recorded. Getting this right throughout your ancestor’s life and within your trees, will help to create accurate and full branches, solve those brick walls, and find those allusive ancestors.
