Genealogical Publishing Company has created a series of 4-page Genealogy at a Glance folders on specific topics to help researchers with their tasks.

The newest in the series is Genealogy at a Glance: Acadian Genealogy Research by Judy Nimer Muhn.

For those who are unfamiliar with this format, Genealogy at a Glance is a four-page digest of quick facts to help a researcher delve into specific locations for their genealogy research.

The four pages are heavily laminated so that, while flexible, they will not bend or tear and are perfect for on-site research in FamilySearch centers or other libraries.

This series also follows the same format for each location, as listed in the CONTENTS, found on the top left of the front page.

After the Quick Facts, the remainder of the Genealogy at a Glance folder focuses on resources and repositories.

Judy Nimer Muhn has several genealogical specialties, including Acadian research. Although I have no Acadians in my family tree, I know a bit about the history and Acadian Genealogical Research is filled with facts, tips and resources that will help those who do have Acadians in the family to enrich their knowledge of what is available and where to look for their own ancestors.

Genealogy at a Glance is a very affordable ($7.95) portable handy guide and Judy’s Acadian Genealogical Research is a must have for those with Acadian roots.

It can be ordered online from Genealogical Publishing Company, which also has 46 other Genealogy at a Glance guides available.
