History Genealogy
A History of Genealogy Research
Genealogy Research and Its History
My great-grandparents would have been incredulous at how very easily genealogy research can be done today with just the click of a mouse! Information that once used to take years of research to discover and compile is now found so quickly. In days gone by information was verbally passed down from generation through generation relying solely on memory of those doing the recording. When keeping records through writing evolved, myths were some of the first things recorded and stored on these written genealogy records. Ancient ancestors believed they were children of mythical gods and their family history was born out of a myth. The earliest genealogy research records are based upon myths.
.
Genealogy Research and The Bible
One of the more famous bits of genealogy research perhaps is written in the Bible. "So and So begat So and So who lived to be 480 and begat so and so…." The famous passages from Genesis and the Gospel are often referred to as "The Begats." The Bible is often looked at as the genealogy research record of Jesus. Nearly all the Old Testament characters are somehow related to Jesus Christ.
In wondering why our ancient ancestors bothered with keeping genealogies it more than likely was due to squabbles over inheritances In the times when the King James Bible was comprised (1611) this would have especially been an issue of contention while countries were under divine right monarchies. In these times people who hoped to have a chance at all of property or a title needed to prove they were related to the recently deceased owner.
The 1900's
My Aunt Ruth use to take me on genealogy research trips with her in the mid 1960's in my family's home state of New Jersey. In those days it was not possible to do any type of substantial genealogy research unless you traveled physically to the place that your ancestors had lived and died. Their lives were traced through dusty, faded and quite often illegibly scribbled notes on yellowed, brittle pages in the halls of public records in the town that you thought your ancestors may have once lived in. As you searched for any trace of them and their lives.In the past, two of the very best resources of genealogy research were cemeteries and the family Bibles. Our ancestors would record all the important family information in the blank pages of their family Bible and pass this book down through the generations. Family Bibles are true gems to genealogists as they were recorded by the very people they're researching.
The next best resource was a cemetery headstone. It was common genealogy research practice o hold a sheet of paper over the headstone and rub it with a pencil to more easily read the information and take it back home where it would then be added to the rest of the genealogy research.

What is an Absolutely free family history/genealogy website?
i need to get some family history info for a paper im doing plz help!!
Ask your parents and grandparents. Genealogy is a hobby, like fly fishing. Asking a student to do it for homework is like asking a stident who had never fished to head out into the mountains with a fly rod and come back with enough trout to feed a party of twelve - in an afternoon. Feel free to print this off. You've either misunderstood your teacher or your teacher is a fool.
