When doing genealogy, you run into words and phrases that you may not understand. This book will help you through those stumbling blocks just like looking up words in a real dictionary. Keep in mind our ancestors spoke differently than we do today. They likely used a term completely different to what you are used to hearing, or using, to describe something . Only you won't know what that really is unless you look it up. this book is a big help to those searching to find what something meant.

It's informative, whimsical, educational. and entertaining -- perfect for the beginner interested in deciphering some of the tricky writings of previous centuries. I liked it so much I ordered another one for a relative also doing genealogy - the condition description of the book said "good" but I don't think it was ever used - perfect!

This book is really a must for the serious family history researcher. It is a dictionary of the plethora of terms that one comes across in puzzlement while doing this type of research and includes specialized terminology, foreign language terms, and abbreviations that one often comes across.
