Publisher's Synopsis
A Book for the Curious, Amateur and Serious Genealogists
Do you Want To Know More About the Past?
THE WORLD OF YOUR ANCESTORS - DATES - 1930 - 1949 is the fourth volume in a series of six. This one covers less years because so much happened. These are the Depression and World War II years and everywhere people's lives were changed.
The author presents information to help history buffs and genealogists see what events occurred and gain insight into what life was really like back then. Readers get a better understanding of the world years ago when they look at the bigger picture seeing a whole year or a decade vs. just seeing one day in time.
Where were your ancestor's living then? Did they leave rural communities to move to big cities? Did they purchase their first car or electric appliance? How did they cope with bank failures, job loss and maybe losing their homes? How many relatives died in the war? How did men and women change before, during and after the war? Are you curious to know what things cost or what cars were sold? Find out what books, movies and songs were popular.
Readers can choose to go down memory lane seeing what they recall. You can choose a date in time and find famous people, news items, inventions, sports events and a whole lot more. Here is your chance to see what happened the day a relative was born. Finding more about your ancestors can be fun. Genealogy is exciting and the past becomes more real when you realize your relatives participated.
THE WORLD OF YOUR ANCESTORS - DATES - VOLUME FOUR presents a mini tour into the past. Each date, each topic area gives you the opportunity to learn something new or to do further research if you chose. You will be saying to yourself, "I forgot about that or "I never knew that".
