  1. Thanks, Lynn. My research notes are a mess (put together over 16 years) and I must put them into the Cloud. And remember how to get them back!

  2. I appreciate this information very much. I already use Evernote (sometimes), Zotero (getting better at using consistently), and OneNote, but not in a systematic-enough way. At least I now tag items with the ancestor’s name so I can gather it all together when I want it.

    My research needs have evolved as I’ve gone along so I can’t imagine having been able to set out most of it at the start. But with the experience gleaned so far, I should be able to do a better job for another ancestor. I aspire to be this thoughtful and organized right from the start but suspect my jumbled mind may not allow it. That’s okay as long as I keep track and this video was a good reminder of the importance of doing this. (I find each of your videos very useful–I just don’t write comments each time.) Thanks!
