𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹. Prioritize by return on effort.
If you need an origin, start with U.S. sources to Heimat. If you are in state archives, get the Arcinsys request path right. If you need narrative proof, work newspapers and census remnants. If you keep bouncing, fix jurisdiction with maps and gazetteers.

Final day. If you plan a winter research sprint, queue the recordings this morning and block the first hour on your calendar now. Watch, apply to one ancestor, record findings, cite. Repeat next week. Small cycles produce big results.

Choose by bottleneck. Identification problems call for newspapers and census. Localization calls for borders and gazetteers and then LAGIS or Arcinsys. Migration needs EWZ or Numeric and Minor Files. Documentation needs church books and a proof plan. The catalog is organized so you can match method to problem.
Researchers loved these sessions because they left with a plan, not just ideas.
