GENEALOGY EXCELLENCE
AWARDS
PURPOSE
Genealogy
research, if performed correctly takes a lot of time and detailed work.
They Live Again wants to recognize those individuals who have worked hard
to to preserve their family history. Additionally, They Live Again
awards wants to acknowledge and recognize those who have also spent the
additional time and effort to create a web page to share and assist
others.
However, too
often the easy way is to simply cut and paste what others claim without
researching to confirm the information. Then others use this information
and the cycle continues.
Genealogy
requires verification of sources to prevent this. Additionally, how that
information is made available is important also. Graphic appearance of a
genealogy site is not as important as the content of the information made
available.
Quality
information can be ruined by a web page that is confusing, takes too long
or simply frustrates the viewer. Thus the purpose of the Genealogy
Awards is to acknowledge genealogy sites that produce researched
information that can be easily understood and shared with other
researchers.
