Our goal is to make genealogical research as easy as possible, and nothing could be easier than doing it from home. Our resources, which currently contain hundreds of articles and links are continually growing, make this possible.” said Andy West, a spokesperson for RevieWizard.In the past, genealogical research has been a tedious undertaking, filled with much footwork and manual searching. The Genealogy Guide has changed all of that, with extensive databases that are searchable online, enabling users to perform genealogical research from the comfort and privacy of their own homes. The Genealogy Guide resources allow users to find U.S. Census records, as well as birth, marriage, and death records around the world. The site links to sources offering numerous scans of records and newspaper articles, compiled by historians and made available to members of sites like Ancestry.com or MyFamily.com.
Many amateur genealogists do not check source information but rather copy data and treat it as accurate. For instance, a marriage that some online genealogies indicate took place in Cleveland, Ohio actually took place in Cleveland, Tennesee - no one checked the registration, or even verified the actual state. This is not to say that all such information is wrong, but rather that a researcher is best advised to use this type of source as a guide only, and verify all data with vital records where possible.To find out more about The Genealogy Guide and other related services, including articles, forums, and links to great sites, please visit RevieWizard's genealogy page on the web.
