When we have a tree that many people have worked on through the years, we often have a hard time finding more ancestors.
Descendancy research helps us to find "cousins" that do not have complete family informations or who are not even in our trees.
There are links on the right of the blog to tools we can use for descendancy research, in addition to descendancy view in FamilyTree on familysearch.org. Puzzilla and Virtual Pedigree are just two of many available.
Here is more information about it. One is a video from FamilyTree. One is the handout I gave in class.
Happy sleuthing!
