Like any other type of project, there is a learning curve. Newcomers to genealogy often make mistakes. Even experienced genealogists sometimes jump to conclusions or follow research trails that turn out to be wrong. While mistakes can be frustrating, the key is to learn from those mistakes. As long as a mistake becomes a learning experience, your long-term success will benefit from that mistake. With some direction, you'll be able to recognize and avoid the most common pitfalls as you embark on your journey to unlock the secrets of your ancestry.

Purpose: Learn about common mistakes newcomers to genealogy make as well as how to avoid them
