Some ancestors can be so elusive that it seems they may have vanished intentionally. Using alternative methods in your research can compensate for missing and incomplete records by uncovering ‘indirect evidence’ that may help break down those stubborn research mysteries.
Applying the Genealogy Proof Standard, we will consider the building blocks for approaching a “brickwall” challenge: a concise research hypothesis, plan, and strategy, the value of a timeline, and solid citations along the way.
