BOOK - Finding Your Ancestors in Manitoba
By Laura Hanowski.
The author takes the reader through the "5 W" approach to help researchers define their goals and look for sources that may have been overlooked.
The "5 W"s answered in Finding Your Ancestors in Manitoba: - Who are you looking for
- Where did the ancestor live in Manitoba
- Where did they live
- What records were created
- Why were the records created.
