"Those volume is written as a research guide for Americans with Ulster Scots (Scots-Irish) origins. It is written from an American point of view specifically for Americans who are trying to get their ancestry back to Ulster in Ireland. Radford gives direction and discusses the availability, usefulness, and limitations of sources. He exams available records for the various groups and times and explains that with thorough research, these then can provide documentation of family members' moves. He reminds us not to think linearly but to trace the generations both ways to find information. The evidence needed may not be recorded by members in our direct line, but records for their relatives-or even neighbors-may provide the sought-after details of who or where. Radford includes 4 special strategies that he has found useful in tracing Scots-Irish lines"-- No library descriptions found. |
