the news of the day
Weather events, disease, economic factors, and natural disasters may have had a profound effect on your ancestors. Make a note of these type of articles and include them in your timelines. By including them, you may be able to surmise your ancestor's reason for some action. Did he and his family migrate to a new home following a severe weather event, such as a drought--“moving on to greener pastures.” Or perhaps they left in search of work, following the closure of a factory or a strike. Can an estimated death date be narrowed through an article that references an epidemic that struck their area?
