Vital Records (Podcast)

Vital records are the foundation of most family trees but knowing how to read them well is a different skill altogether. In this episode we dig into birth, marriage, and death records: what they contain, how reliable that information actually is, and where to look when the official documents simply do not exist. A few surprises along the way, including what one marriage certificate revealed about a 17-year-old bride who had other plans.
