I hope you had a great experience in the program at Boston University. I did know that they used it. Thanks for the kind words.

It is great and I just saw the comment about dowloading it.

I will download it and see if I have been doing all of the suggested steps.

Thank you!
If I were still in the classroom, I’d be seeking permission to use this while teaching historical research.
As it is, I’ll add a link to my favorites.
Aloha!

I saw this when I took Boston University Genealogy Research Certificate program. Did you know that they used it for the class? Very well done.

Thank you Mark. I downloaded quite awhile ago but hadn’t printed yet. I may have been one of those 500 pageviews on Thursday, 31 Jul 2008. Hum, I should go look for that download. Maybe I have a copy of the original. I figure It may become a ‘collector’s item’.

Think I will do that for my personal use and maybe laminate too. Thank you for all you have done to make it easier for us.

You are free to print the map for your own personal use. Just download it: http://www.thinkgenealogy.com/wp-content/uploads/Genealogy%20Research%20Map%20v2.pdf

Thanks for your comments.

I agree with everybody. I also notice you cannot right click the image. That might be useful.

Didn’t you say before that we have permission to print it?

Once again, you’ve shown us a great tool to make it possible to view much larger images than our browsers normally permit. Thanks for THINKING, Mark!

I definitely like it! As a retired IT nut, it really makes the process logical and clear. Compared to how some books & lecturers try to explain it, there is just no comparison.

Hello Mark,

I was very impressed with your zoomable photograph. It immediately occured to me that I have always wanted a way to display my Ancestor Tree without using one of the online tree services. Most family tree’s are too big to display so zooming it is ideal. See my recent post on how I used it : -

I think this is a great new tool in the genealogist armoury. Thanks for sharing this with us.

This is really impressive. I can imagine it for presentations (which would not be useful to me) and also on a blog. Thanks for sharing it. And I like your Research Process Map. Very clean and clear. Thanks.
