Recording and organising your research and sources
Introducing how to record and organise your research and the sources used
In this video we explore in general terms why and how genealogical researchers should record and organise their research findings. We also consider the importance of keeping a record of your sources, i.e. referencing.
The research log featured in this video and a template for a research log focused on an individual ancestor (created by Chris Atkin and used as part of her research process) can be found in the ‘Downloads’ section below.
