Title
When Your Ox Is In The Ditch. Genealogical Howto Letters (Oklahoma Western Biographies),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Vera McDowell's letters containing practical advice to genealogists first appeared in the Augusta Genealogical Society's newsletter, Southern Echoes, in July 1982, and since then she has become something of a 'Dear Abby' in genealogical circles. Mrs. McDowell's emphasis is on problemsolving; thus all her letters bear the unstated refrain: when your ox is in the ditch (i.e. when you're stuck), here's what you do! The other thing that sets her apart is her enthusiasm for genealogy, and here her focus is on fun, personal fulfillment, and pure joy, and her letters resonate with the excitement of the chase. Ten years after they first began to appear in Southern Echoes, Vera McDowell's letters were assembled in the form of a howto manual and grouped into chapters covering topics ranging from recordkeeping and numbering systems to courthouses and cemeteriestraditional fare with a special McDowell twist! Under the title When Your Ox is in the Ditch, the compiled letters were published to universal acclaim in l992. With the Society's permission, it is now being released to an even wider audience by the Genealogical Publishing Company.
