Yearbooks Never Forget: FREE CHEAT SHEET 10 Ways to Use School Yearbooks for Genealogy

High school and university yearbooks grew in popularity in the United States starting with the use of the linotype printing process in the 1880s. And as more of our ancestors extended their education beyond the sixth or eighth grade, we see them more frequently in yearbooks.

Genealogy Cheat Sheets Sale at Genealogy Bargains
– Save 50%!

Most of my followers know that for years I have offered FREE ACCESS to all of my Genealogy Cheat Sheets as part of my “abundance model” for my business Genealogy Bargains. My business has reached a crossroads where I’m no longer able to offer free access to these valuable two-page guides covering a variety of genealogy topics such as digitizing family photos, German genealogy resources, how to stay safe online and more.

Believe me this has not been an easy decision for me. A variety of economic forces – especially the decline in affiliate marketing income across many industries including genealogy – meant I had to move to a paid access model.

That being said,  I will still be offering occasional “freebies” (scroll down for this month’s free 10 Ways to Use School Yearbooks for Genealogy cheat sheet) and my goal is to offer periods of free access as often as I can. PLUS the full price for the genealogy cheat sheets is only $1.99 USD per download.

About Thomas MacEntee

So, what if I told you that a Baby Boomer guy with a love of punk rock music but also Renaissance Art, somehow “fell” into the technology industry almost 40 years ago, and then left a lucrative career in information technology to pursue his love of family history and genealogy?

And that his passion for tracing his roots began over 45 years ago when he was watching the mini-series Roots on ABC Television at his great-grandparents’ house in February 1977?

While some might think these two elements – technology and historical research – are opposites. The truth is, “tech people” like Thomas are needed to guide today’s genealogists through the maze of options so they can deploy the best apps and devices as they break down those research brick walls.

Having taught over 1,000 in-person and virtual genealogy lectures since 2010, serving on the boards of many genealogical societies, organizing a group of over 1,000 genealogy bloggers, and helping researchers save money on genealogy products and services, Thomas is ready for the next chapter in his professional journey: changing the way genealogists acquire new research skills, motivating researchers to take a chance on new technologies, and improving how family stories and heirlooms are preserved and passed on to the next generations.

Thomas MacEntee: author, educator, student, advocate, marketer, storyteller, entrepreneur and that “genealogy guy” who helps you accomplish your family history goals.
