Family historians depend upon thousands of people unknown to them. They exchange research with others; copy information from books and databases; and write libraries, societies, and government offices. At times they even hire professionals to do legwork in distant areas and trust strangers to solve important problems. But how can a researcher be assured that he or she is producing or receiving reliable results? This official manual from the Board of Certification for Genealogists provides a standard by which all genealogists can pattern their work.

The Standards Manual has been superceded by two editions of Genealogy Standards. However, it is still a recommended resource by the Board for Certification of Genealogists. In particular, the appendices with examples of lineage and genealogy styles, formats, and typography is very useful!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Real Genealogical Proof Standard
Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2012
Verified Purchase
The BCG Genealogical Standards Manual clearly describes a very good standard for genealogical research. The five parts of the standard itself are each clearly described.
I have doing genealogical research for the past 64 years. I have found that most so called genealogists are simply collectors of other peoples work and that most of them do not even describe the source of their collections. Early in my research I decided that unless the source is given for most facts, the work is nothing more than gossip; not malicious, but merely hearsay.
I recommend this book to all genealogists and beg them to follow its standards.

I do genealogical work for myself. I want to want become certified by Board for Certification of Genealogists and this is required reading to pass their exam. It is excellent. If you have no plans to become certified, you will learn how to get past many of those dead roads our ancestors left us.

The book is informative, gives details of what you need, in order to become certified. If you were not already into genealogy, it is dry and boring, but if you were not into genealogy, there would be no reason to purchase.

Excellent presentation, with excellent explanations as to why specific standards need to be applied to our genealogical research. It's not the most interesting read, but a mandatory one for anyone who's serious abt 'doing it right.'

If you're going to research your ancestry, you just as well write it correctly. Genealogy has it's own language and symbols and this book is a quick read resource every genealogist should have in his/her genealogy library.
