Hit a genealogy research brick wall? Learn the latest tech tools for creating detailed timelines and how careful data analysis can help you solve cases of merged identities.
Merged identities are a common problem in genealogy – especially in online trees.

- Build Dynamic Timelines: Master step-by-step methods to map out timelines using your genealogy software, spreadsheets, or custom tables.
- Capture Critical Details: Learn the exact data points and documentation you need to include for a foolproof timeline.
- Evaluate Evidence: Analyze your supporting records with a critical eye to verify every timeline event.
- Solve the Mystery: Put your timeline to work to catch hidden errors, untangle merged ancestors, and bust through brick walls.
