5 Reasons to Read Family Tree Magazine

Family Tree is a British magazine that has helped people trace their family tree for 30 years. Supporting all levels of researchers, it has beginner guides to in-depth resources for experienced genealogists.

 1. Family Tree is UK-based but has tips and research methodologies for wherever you live, like how to hone your online research skills and research in the field.

 2. There are articles on traditional genealogy research, like military and census records, but also on topics like historical clothing, child workers, and researching house histories. It’s important to understand the time your ancestors lived, and these articles help readers learn about different periods and how they affected their family.

3. Columns include “Your DNA Workshop”, “Your Questions Answered”, and “Lunch Hour Genealogist”. Sometimes it can feel overwhelming to do genealogy. These columns have great tips and strategies that you can apply right away to your research.

4. It hosts challenges, like the recent #storyofourstreet challenge - a fun idea since we’ve been at home for a long time now! I started researching my parents’ street and found some surprising things already.

5. It’s informative and filled with resources but written in a down to earth style. It’s a great complement to scholarly genealogy journals and much more accessible, especially for beginner to intermediate genealogists.
