Spent years on genealogy? Learn how to use social history resources to “fluff up” your data and write family histories that your friends and relatives will want to read.
You've spent years (or decades) working on your genealogy. Now it's finally time to take all that data and put it together into a story that your friends and relatives - yes, even your spouse and children! - will want to read. Using social history resources Mary Roddy will show you how to take your data and "fluff it up" with the kinds of details that draw your reader into the story of their ancestors' lives.

She is an active member of the Seattle Genealogical Society and speaks frequently in the Seattle area. Mary is a regular contributor to YourGenealogyToday and Internet Genealogy magazines and a webinar presenter with Legacy Family Tree Webinars.
