My map of ancestral pools just dumped all my maternal families into one pool. I decided that really wasn’t helpful as it stripped away the fact that these families were from six villages with most of them being from one village. So I color coded it by village of origin. That reminded me which portions of my Ostfriesen pool were from the same village and which ones were from others. The thing I need to add is something showing the relative position of these villages and how close (or far away) they are from each other. That matters as well. But is there some chart or organizational method you use where color could help? Help support Genealogy Tip of the Day by visiting any of the following sites: Try a GenealogyBank Genealogy […]
