Persuasive Genealogical Report

✨ Writing Prompt

Imagine you’ve conducted extensive research on a particular family lineage that contradicts a widely accepted narrative. Your task is to write a report that not only presents your findings but also persuades your readers—be they family members, fellow genealogists, or historical societies—of the validity and significance of your research. Structure your report with a clear introduction outlining the context and importance of the findings, followed by a detailed presentation of evidence, and conclude with a persuasive argument for why your findings should be considered credible. Remember to address potential counterarguments and include citations from sources to bolster your claims.
