Description
Historian Gordon Wood states it well: “Precisely because we are not a people held together by blood, no one knows who an American is except by what they believe. It’s important that we do know our history, because our history is the source of our Americanness.”
Do you know the history of your Ancestors? Have you ever wondered where your ancestors landed when they first arrived on American soil? Can you just imagine what was going through their minds as they gathered up their belongings and disembarked after a lengthy ocean crossing?
Terri helps you find the answers to these questions and many others in her guide “My Immigrant Ancestors – A Guide to Help You Jumpstart Your Journey”. This guide will help you start your search for your Immigrant Ancestors.
In each chapter there are sections called My Example. These sections are what makes Terri’s guide uniquely different from other guides you may have purchased. There are over 45 Examples including family pictures, images and texts of what Terri discovered while on her Journey. She shares how she obtained the information, what she learned from the search and where it led her to research additional family history.
Terri identifies Four Steps in the Journey: 1 Organizing and Documenting Your Current Information, 2 Conducting Interviews, 3 Preparing to Search and, 4 Focus Your Ancestor Search. She also lists Five Benefits she believes you will experience: 1 – Increase Your World as You Know It, 2 - Know your own Personal History, 3 – Expand Your Sense of Being an American, 4 – Keep Your Family Memories and Traditions Alive and, 5 – Discover the Mystery of you – DNA.
