Questions
We don't know much about our family. Can we still do this?
Absolutely. The course starts with what you know, even if that is just your own household, and shows you how to find more, one record at a time.
What if our family situation is complicated?
The course was written for real families: adopted, blended, single-parent, grandparent-led, and estranged branches. It treats every family story with care and honesty.
Do we need a paid genealogy subscription?
No. Every lesson uses free resources and family interviews. Paid sites are mentioned only as optional extras.
