Mind Mapping Made Easy for Family Historians by Linda Hammond is a highly accessible and practical guide tailored to genealogists looking to sharpen their research process through visual thinking.
Drawing on over 30 years of genealogical experience, Hammond shows how mind maps can streamline everything from planning research to analysing data and presenting family stories. Each chapter tackles a specific area of the family history journey—organising ideas, spotting gaps in records, identifying patterns, and even overcoming brick walls.
Key features include:
-
Step-by-step instructions for beginners
-
Real-world examples from the author’s own research
-
Advice on using mind maps to structure large or complex family trees
-
Techniques for turning scattered clues into meaningful connections
Published in A4 format with over 70 pages, it’s packed with samples and templates to get you started. A blank page on purpose (page 34) suggests space for your own notes or practice. It’s an empowering tool—once you start mind mapping, you may wonder how you ever managed your research without it.
