    1. [BUNKER] 10 “Must-Do” Genealogy Projects for April
    2. 10 “Must-Do” Genealogy Projects for April from AncestralFindingds.com Are you looking for some productive genealogy projects to do for April? As the first full month of spring, April offers some interesting and unique genealogy opportunities that just don’t fit in as well during other months of the year. If you want to stay on top of things in your genealogy research these are the projects that should definitely be on your “to do” list this month. Enjoy them. 1. Spring Clean Your Genealogy This is a perfect time to go through all of the printed genealogy information in your files and binders and clean it up. Put things in their proper places if they have been stacking up for a while. Get rid of information you don’t need anymore. Alphabetize items and arrange them by date from oldest to newest. You can even categorize documents in this way. Doing this will make it much easier for you to find what you need when you need it, and reduce genealogical clutter. 2. Sweep Your Family Tree It’s not just your physical genealogical information that needs cleaning this time of year. This is also a perfect time to prep your digital family tree for work for the year ahead. Go through the lines you are actively working on and make sure every piece of information has a credible source attached to it. If there is no source, find one or more. Make sure your family tree makes sense and all generations have a proven connection to one another. Delete inaccurate or disproved information. Edit notes in your family tree for grammar and spelling, and add new details that you may have discovered but not written down yet. Add photos of any new ancestors you’ve discovered to your digital family tree to paint a more complete picture of your family history. Still eight more ideas waiting for you.
