Hybrid- Jenkins & Zoom
Two Part Lecture Series
1. Avoiding Fallacies in Family History: A key to research success
We will learn the fallacies of debate to name errors you may have encountered but haven’t labeled. Whether in the evidence or the source, errors infiltrate genealogical problem-solving, taking us off-track. Understanding the difference between these errors with induction and deduction will start your journey toward unlocking family truths.
2. Applying the Principle of Three to Genealogy Research
Throughout history, in religion, folklore, and daily life, we have relied on the Principle of Three – how things occur in groups of three. For example, using three examples to prove a point, giving three reasons for a decision, relying on three pieces of evidence to support a claim. But are three enough when doing genealogical research? Using three case studies, we will demonstrate reasons that limiting one’s findings to three might be too restrictive. Instead, we explain how to use an Exhaustive Search to prove ancestral conclusions.
This will be a hybrid class held in-person in Jenkins and online via Zoom. Registration is only required for Zoom attendees.
