Genealogy Book Proposal

Question

I just need the right title.

MYTHS, TALL TALES, AND WHOPPERS: Stories from the Genealogical Minefields

or

LIES MY ANCESTORS TOLD ME

Comments

LoL! 

I like the second title best :)

---

I like

"Digging up My Ancestors."

---

DIGGING UP THE TRUTH MY ANCESTORS WANTED TO BURY

---

Plus one on that one. Lois.

My mother was always telling me about her father and grandfather's service in WWI.  She had letters, maps, documents ...

But I have the internet, where you can get copies of official service records online. Those stories were largely wrong, and some of them were outright lies.

---

Then there was my father's family, who liked a particular anecdote so well they retold the same story about different people.

Answer 1

Lois - hi.  Run a Google search on the titles - especially the last one.  There are some "close" videos and books already out there.

Good luck with your publishing endeavor.
