I woke up at 5.19am today for no reason, so I also updated the format on Let's Talk Find a Grave. Since many would be purchasing a duplicate to get the print-friendly option, I've marked it at just $6 and I will honor that through 12 July. www.theformidablegenealogist.com/product-page...
This weekend, I updated another of my research guides to a print-friendly size. This will print on USA letter sized and A4. I've marked this new format down to just $8 as many may be purchasing a duplicate. I'll leave it at this price through 12 July. www.theformidablegenealogist.com/product-page...
I started reformatting my guides with my Super Charge Your Ancestry Searches guide & created a new print-friendly version To celebrate the new print-friendly version I’ve marked Super Charge Your Ancestry Searches down to just $8 through the weekend. www.theformidablegenealogist.com/product-page...
