In Episode #339 of Research Like a Pro, Nicole and Diana discuss customizing an Airtable research log for tax research. Tax records are invaluable for genealogy research because they were taken annually, filling in the gaps between federal censuses. The challenge is finding a good way to track and analyze the data. Airtable is a favorite research log tool, and by adding a linked table to the log, researchers can tame tax data and make it work for them. Diana shares a case study using her ancestor, Henderson Weatherford, who resided in Dallas County in 1860 and appeared on a tax list that same year. She wanted to track the Weatherfords who showed up in Dallas County by 1850 to see if there was any connection to her ancestor. Nicole explains the technical setup in Airtable, starting with the RLP with DNA 4.0 (2024) Airtable base template and adding a new table by matching the headings in the new table to the headings on a tax list. Diana explains how she analyzes the data in the Airtable research log by grouping the tax table by an individual to view their economic status. She gives practical applications of her research process and concludes that tax records are valuable in genealogy research. Listeners will learn how to use Airtable to track and analyze tax data to further their genealogy research. This summary was generated by Google Gemini.
