Book Reviews at Amazon for Mexican Genealogy Research Online: A Guide to Help You Discover Your Mexican Ancestry
Tinat
“The book gives very clear instructions on finding primary sources, organizing your research, and connecting with other Mexican genealogy researchers. I have done quite a bit of research, I’ve gone as back as far as the 1700s, but I admit that I have struggled with organizing my findings. The eBook provides specific methods on how to organize your work.
This is a very good book to help aspiring genealogists get started on the right track. What I like most about the books are the links to valuable resources and the recommendations from the author.”

“I was pleased with Mexican Research Online because it gives a lot of information that helps us find our family history.”
