IN DEVELOPMENT
A master-level course exploring complex records, advanced research strategies, and techniques for breaking through genealogical “brick walls.”
This course builds on the skills introduced in the Introduction to Genealogical Research course and guides learners into more advanced research methods used by experienced genealogists.
Course Overview
This course explores advanced genealogical research strategies used to investigate difficult or incomplete historical records. Learners examine complex sources, analyze conflicting evidence, and develop systematic approaches for solving challenging research questions.
Through guided investigation and case-based examples, learners practice evaluating historical evidence, tracing individuals across multiple records, and developing strategies for overcoming common genealogical “brick walls.”
Who It’s For
This course is designed for learners who already have experience working with historical records and are ready to develop deeper research strategies used in advanced genealogical work.
What Learners Will Practice
• Analyzing complex or incomplete historical records
• Correlating evidence from multiple sources
• Investigating challenging research questions
• Developing strategies for breaking through genealogical “brick walls”
• Documenting and organizing advanced research findings
