Genealogists often require help (in large and small amounts) from other genealogists. Sometimes it is a quick lookup in a record and sometimes it is a more extensive “look” at a problem in order to get some advice. Remember that the sharing goes both ways. Offer to help someone with a research problem, to take a picture of a tombstone, or to make a copy from a book that you have. Getting away from your own research problems and looking at someone else’s often gives you insight into your own.
