Keys to Genealogical Research with Books and Periodicals

From “how to” books to local histories, books and articles can give you critical information for tracking down an ancestor, provide time saving research advice, unfold local stories that affected (and sometimes involved) your ancestors. How do you begin to figure out what you need? Does it exist? How can you get it? What is available here at the Newton Free Library? What can you have sent here from other libraries? What can you find online on sites such as the Internet Archive? Come to the library and discover how to enrich the history of your family. Register online.
