Your Guide and Defense: Genohistory with Research Plans
I spent eight years in doctoral study in history without knowing how to create a research plan. Oh, I planned, and I researched, but it was a nebulous process, without structure. When I went back to genealogy after the Ph.D. and discovered the wonderful tool called a “research plan” that genealogists were using to do really smart research, I wondered how much better my doctoral work might have been with that one tool.
I have written about this epiphany in my earlier blog, The Golden Egg Genealogist. I won’t reinvent the wheel here. I include below a repeat of the earlier post. It was designed for genealogists and answers a lineage question, as you will see, but I ask us all to read it today from the perspective of a genohistorian. Think about how you might apply this tool to the questions of time and place that serve our broader function at the middle ground between genealogy and history.
