    Summary: 
    This Lecture: Step away from research and explore how to use historical content to transform your facts into engaging life stories. Dr. Colletta reveals seven steps for building effective historical context, including examining your sources in light of local history, and using history to test a hypothesis about how an event transpired. The Course: Genealogy is a journey of self-discovery that can teach you as much about yourself as about those who came before you. But what holds many of us back from unearthing our family history is uncertainty about how to go about it. Discover which resources you should use and trust, how you should make your way through tangles of public records, and so much more. All Lectures: 1. Interviewing Kin and Mining Home Sources 2. Genealogy Online-Gems and Junk 3. The Library-Shelves Full of Family History 4. Military Service and Homestead Records 5. How to Build Historical Context 6. Your Ancestors in Ship Passenger Lists 7.
