经过30年零3个版本,为什么是Val格林伍德研究员指南美国家谱仍然是最受尊敬的家谱教科书?很显然,给点意见,和权威,可以肯定的,但格林伍德也非常机智。从军事记录了两章的一个下图就是一个很好的例子。

作为格林伍德先生解释说,“很多开始系谱忽视革命战争记录作为研究来源,主要是因为他们不承认有效的线索。”If you are working on a pre-Revolutionary line and believe that your ancestor did not serve in the war, it’s possible that “a relative (maybe a brother) of the same surname did,” and the service or pension records on that veteran would provide data about your ancestors. On the other hand, if your ancestor was of age to serve but you have no definite knowledge that he did, “the possibility of service must certainly be considered.” Finally, “if a known ancestor was born in America anytime within the period beginning just before the war and ending two decades after it, you must consider the possibility that his (or her) father served, even though you may not know the father’s name.”genconmilitary

研究员指南美国家谱致力于两章军事记录的主题,每章充满机智的技巧和例子像上面的一个。第一章讨论了北美殖民地的战争和美国革命的家谱;第二,所有后续的军事记录。虽然通过这些记录的整理似乎是一个复杂的任务,绿林通过在所有军事记录到服务记录和退伍军人的福利记录,规定以过程。For each conflict, he explains what the records are (e.g., invalid pension records, bounty lands, warrants, etc.), how they came into existence, where they can be found (in the original or on microfilm), and how to use them. The author also provides a bibliography of published genealogical sources arising out of each war. All in all, Greenwood’s treatment of Military Records is enough to make an expert out of you in the time it takes to read 30 pages.
