Breaking Through Brick Walls: Taking the Long way Around by Greg Liverman
Second in the series on Breaking Brick Walls, Greg goes deeper into the skills sets used when analyzing leads. One of the most effective techniques for getting around a brick wall is to examine associates: other family members, friends, neighbors or people who travelled with your family from their ancestral homeland. New records are digitized and published every day. Another effective technique is periodic re-searching of those repositories for new records. Free to members. Registration required at www.crcgs.org Education.
