Description
Some Genealogical Obstacles Considered is a paper submitted for consideration at the Thirteenth Annual Meeting of the Genealogical Society of Pennsylvania, 1905. Obstacles discussed are related to emigration: the nationality of the original emigrant, the emigrant's change of name, absence of early vital statistics, absence of early church records, brevity of early records, destruction of old graveyards, illegibility of old tombstones, separating out identities of ancestors, and the numerical immensity of ancestors.
