The latest in this series of family history mysteries (the eighth such volume) includes some of the most interesting reader-submitted queries as they appeared originally in a genealogy magazine published several years ago, and now out of print.

Genealogy queries are a time-honored way for family researchers to share information with others working on the same family lines. A typical query includes information on births, deaths, marriages, children of a given couple, family migrations, etc. Some trace several generations of one family. Some even include colorful family stories that have been passed down through the years!

If you like history — especially southern history — you’ll enjoy reading the stories included in this volume, even if you are not currently working on your own family tree. But if you are into genealogy, you’ll be pleased to discover you’re not alone in dealing with those often stubborn family puzzles.

Besides providing some enjoyable reading, this inexpensively priced sampler shows the types of information contained in the queries that appeared in the magazine, as well as in the surname-specific volumes in this series, also available in Kindle format.
