Video Description

Hannah Maria Ericsdotter is the daughter of Eric Hansen. When she immigrated to the United States as a child with her brothers her name was listed as Hannah Ericson. She reunited with her parents when they immigrated a few years later and on the subsequent census she is listed as Mary Hessler (the Swedish farm name her father used when he moved to America). A few months after that census she got married and became Hannah Peterson. So, how should all of those names be recorded? Join Crista Cowan for a look at some best practices for recording information in your family tree.
