Description

Genealogy research has come a long way in recent years. You may find yourself immersed with the tools and techniques presented through this merit badge. With the help of the Genealogy Merit Badge Pamphlet, Scouts can earn the Genealogy Merit Badge. Learn about the basics of genealogy and key terms like ancestor and descendant and discover your family history by interviewing relatives. Scouts will learn about different types of genealogical resources, how to construct a family tree, and discover the effects of computers and the Internet on the field of genealogy. This merit badge is great for Scouts interested in their family history and for those who may want to pursue a possible career in genealogy.
