"Concerning Genealogies" by Frank Allaben is a detailed guidebook on how to explore your family's past, probably from the early 1900s. The book explains both the how-to and the why of tracing your family tree, offering advice on the right way to do research and why knowing your roots matters. Allaben highlights genealogy as a fun and rewarding hobby that also helps build a better historical understanding. He describes exactly what you need to do to uncover your family's story, from talking to relatives to digging through old documents and putting everything together in a way that makes sense. He also talks about different ways to approach genealogy, like the "Grafton Plan" that focuses on direct family lines. The book acknowledges the difficulties you might face, celebrates the excitement of finding new information, and stresses the need to keep careful and accurate records. Allaben wants to inspire people to see genealogy as more than just collecting names and dates; he wants them to see it as a way to connect with the interesting stories of their ancestors.
