Upcoming Topics

We're working on some interesting topics at Casefile Clues. These include:

• Pullman Company Employment Records
• Update on Hiring a Professional
  
• Tracing a Family Through pre-1850 Census Records
• Getting Beyond the 1850 Census
• Finding John Michael's missing 37 acres

And updates on a few of my "brick walls" that have been discussed in earlier issues. For those who are unfamiliar with Casefile Clues, my focus is on methods, sources, and process. Each issue is cited, keeping in mind that genealogy without citation is often myth. That said, the citations do not overtake the issue and I (and my proofreader Sue) work hard to make each issue readable. Our goal is to get readers seeing why I did what I did, even when it did not work.

Concentration is on American sources, but our methodology is applicable to a variety of areas and time periods. Casefile Clues has subscribers in every state, Canada, the UK, Sweden, and Australia.

Casefile Clues is sent weekly as an attached PDF file and is only $17 a year. If you've been looking for a magazine that gets beyond the fluff and is not the same general how-to advice you're used to, give us a try.
