Genealogy Gifts of Knowledge

It’s December and that means Happy Holidays and that means gift-giving and why not ask for something you truly want…more genealogy knowledge!

In our latest podcast, Episode #48, we talk about continuing our pursuit of knowledge in the genealogical field with new books for our shelves and educational opportunities either in person or online. There is no better time to ask for these items or get them for yourselves. All the books we recommend are on our Amazon storefront which makes it easy to purchase and helps support our podcast which we greatly appreciate!
