I’m just about to publish a new Orderly Roots guide (called How I Do It: A Professional Organizer’s Genealogy Workflow; it will detail how I organize my genealogy research). I’m in the process of completing a new description page for the guides and I’d love to include a few testimonials.
No pressure, of course, but if you’d like to help me out, just answer any of these questions, by either commenting on this post or sending an email to janine@organizeyourfamilyhistory.com.
Here are my questions:
- Which guide or guides did you purchase?
- Did you find the guide helpful?
- What kind of results did you see or feel because you read the guide?
- Did the guide help you make any changes in how you organize or conduct your research?
Thanks in advance to anyone who wants to take the time to answer any of those of questions. I’ll put those who respond on a temporary email list so you’ll be the first to hear when How I Do It is published.

I am just starting out and I don’t know if I should buy the Paperless Guide or the Workflow Guide. Which would you recommend first? I have limited experience, and I just seem to be going back to Ancestry and not saving things or verifying things. I want to do it right, and mostly on my Mac
Thanks, Jennifer

Jennifer, it’s great that you’re looking to do things right! The Paperless Genealogy Guide is specifically about going paperless, so might not answer your questions about genealogical research principles. You might actually benefit most, right now, from 10 Things I Wish I’d Known When I Started Doing Genealogy. When How I Do It: A Professional Organizer’s Genealogy Workflow comes out in April, it should be really helpful. It’s going to be at a slightly higher price point, though, since it’s longer.
