Upcoming Webinars
1. Sources and Citations: Just Do It!
Presenter: Carol Darrow - president of the Colorado Genealogical Society
Family history without documentation is mythology. Knowing the source of the information that you gather and determining whether the source was an actual participant or someone who wrote about
the event long afterwards will help you evaluate the reliability of the information you collect. Then
it’s time to apply our knowledge to evaluate the significance of the information in the document –
does it answer the question?
Citing your sources tells your reader where you got your information so they can evaluate
the information for themselves. It will also help you to retrace your steps back to your original document.
