Description
When Your Ox Is in the Ditch by Vera McDowell | 1992| Paperback | 161 pages | ISBN: 0806314842 | Genealogical How-to Letters, Vera McDowell’s letters containing practical advice to genealogists first appeared in the Augusta Genealogical Society’s newsletter, Southern Echoes, in July 1982, and since then she has become something of a “Dear Abby” in genealogical circles. Ten years after they first began to appear in Southern Echoes, Vera McDowell’s letters were assembled in the form of a how-to manual and grouped into chapters covering topics ranging from record-keeping and numbering systems to courthouses and cemeteries–traditional fare with a special McDowell twist!
