This guide is exactly what a person needs to begin looking for their Quaker ancestors. The information is well-presented and organized in such a way that even novices can be successful in searching the often confusing material in Quaker records. Ms Fishman has discussed different areas of this fascinating research, including migration patterns, terminology and history. I wish this guide had been available when I was doing Quaker research.
This is a concise, yet thorough, guide to Quaker research. There are some peculiarities involved in Quaker research. Stephanie Fishman's guide will help genealogists get a good foundation for researching the Quakers in their family trees.
Covers the basics of researching Quaker ancestors. Good details on the meeting structure, record repositories and Quaker related websites. Best of all it is succinct and to the point. Great 1st primer on Quakers.
this book is not very helpful, has just the basics, in large print and double or triple spacing - in other words, not worth the investment.
I tried to cancel this I do not have kindle. I still got charged.
