RLP 95: How to Use the FAN Club in Research

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about the FAN club. When you research your ancestors, do you pay attention to their neighbors on the census? The bondsmen, godparents, witnesses, doctors, and people with the same occupation? These all make up the friends, associates, and neighbors of your ancestors. Researching the FAN club is a strategy Diana and I have used often in our own research and research for clients. Join us as we discuss a case where the FAN club strategy proved useful.
