All genealogists hope that the records they need are indexed, so that they don’t have to search blindly through hundreds of pages. However, not all indexes are created the same, and not knowing the most common forms of indexing may mean you miss some important documents. In this slim volume, Ms. Rose, a nationally-known researcher, reviews the most commonly found indexes one is likely to encounter. This little book is crammed with examples and illustrations. It is divided into chapters that describe nine different forms of indexing, plus a chapter of miscellaneous ones. Each chapter contains step-by-step directions on how to use the particular index. There is a list of illustrations in the beginning, followed by the aforementioned chapters. The book is indexed.
