5 (won’t let me click on a number) Great examples – I made a quick timeline this morning to answer a question. It worked for my purpose, but now I know how to make it better. Thanks!
5+++++
A great explanation of timelines. Thank you.
Actually inspired me to try spreadsheets
Although I use timelines a fair amout there were some new ideas today. Thanks
Always good to use some kind of organizer to see the history unfold before your eyes.
Basic info, well-organized.
Beautifully organized – both the talk and examples and the syllabus. Learned MANY new things!
being a visual person, i feel the techniques learned today will be very valuable for me to help me see my place on a person’s research because i tend to jump around a lot. Will start doing this right away with my research. Very logical progression of learning in the presentation content. Thanks!
Better utilizing timelines is a natural fit for the way I analyze and process information. It’s past time for me to incorporate this into my family history research. I’m feeling motivated!
Brilliant webinar, now need to go back and rewatch the webinar to plan my new Timelines..
Cari did a good job of explaining why and how to use timelines
Cari did a great job of making the information relevant
Cari did a great job.
Cari has a really comfortable presentation style. Her suggestions about timelines are very helpful.
Cari is so enthusiastic about this subject!!!!!!!!! Lots to learn! Thank you very much.
Cari is very knowledgeable and taught us with her many examples that timelines can really be the answer to breaking down brick walls and also for seeing what is missing. I love the comparing 2 people with the same name to determine who is who. Thanks again for the great webinar!
Cari made a compelling argument for the use of timelines for both analysis and communication. Really well done and accessible to all levels!
Cari was excellent. I can’t wait to get started on some timelines. I had never thought about using a dry erase board…. a great tip.
Easy to follow. Easy to understand.
Especially liked the additional resources listed at the end – fancy timelines, etc.

Great webinar. Interesting and clearly given. Time to work on timelines! Thank you for another fantastic webinar.
Great!
I already use spreadsheet, table and paragraph style timelines so I feel well-qualified to say she covered the topic excellently. Her addition of online timeline creators and tools was very helpful and some of it new to me. I’m definitely checking out Draw.io.
I always talk about how historical events are important in a tree for many reasons, but i learned a whole lot today about that!
I am a constant user of spreadsheets for family group timelines and Cari’s presentation gave me some new ideas! Thanks
I am a great believer in timelines mainly use them to solve problems or issues.
Thank-you so much for making this available to people like me. I live 24/7 on a hobby farm and know there are fabulous resources not too far from me, but I have so many responsibilities, I rarely get more than an hour or three for my personal interests. Great topic. Great speaker.
I am sad, watching such beautiful presentations, and I realize how far I am with my family tree from what I could and what I would like to achieve. MyHeritage has allowed me to significantly increase the number of members of the tree, but I have so little information and facts about my ancestors
I can do this ! Yes I can !
I do want to learn to use timelines more. I can see I need to learn the legacy chronology better. Thanks.
I enjoyed it and definitely feel more confident in what I’ve been doing to build timelines – almost always done to sort out possible multiple people of the same name.
I had just realized I needed to do a timeline so the timing of this webinar was perfect for me! I also learned that there are some available so maybe I don’t need to ‘reinvent the wheel.” Thank you so much!
I joined late – but really appreciate this topic
I just got home in time to see the end, waiting now to watch the beginning.
I learned a lot! Excellent speaker.
I learned to do timelines in college during an American History class. The professor had us do genealogy and incorporate historical facts in our timeline. Thanks for reminding me of History Class!
I liked the comparison timeline chart and the many new sources I learned about.
I love spreadsheets. It was great to see and hear more ideas.
I love using timelines and getting different perspectives, new ideas, understanding how others use them, etc. all helps improve our research, visuals and getting others involved. This webinar was very informative and excellent. Thank you
I loved it! So much good info. Very practical and helpful! Thank you.
I loved the confidence of the presenter and sharing her own research. The presenter gave good reasons as to the value of placing information into a context for the research subject. I was particularly intrigued about today’s topic as I started a similar project. The seminar reinforced my own research methods and also provided me with a few more resources to utilize of which I had not been aware until now. Thank you for another stellar professional webinar!
I really like the samples shown using Excel spreadsheets for timelines. Also, appreciate all the online resources to check out for timelines. Great webinar!
I thought it was great. I am a visual and I loved the visuals so I could follow along.
I use these but she gave me many new ideas. Very helpful and well organized. Thanks.
I was very impressed with all the topics discussed by Cari. You gave some wonderful ideas to pursue and look forward to starting my timelines. I really enjoyed this webinar and plan on attending other ones now. Thank you so much.
I will be looking for more by Cari Taplin, examples were general enough to be of interest to those of us researching outside of the USA.
If there was a 10+ on this rating I would give Cari Taplin, CG a perfect 10 and then some!!!! She delivered a clear, concise, informative, and interesting webinar today! I LOVED IT ALL!!! Congratulations Cari on a very fine delivery. You have inspired me to compare two different similar names in my research and this will make it more clear who is who. Thanks again! Are you doing any other webinars???? Sign me up!
Information arranged in a way that I had not considered before. Appreciate Cari’s organizational skills and her ability to tell us how we can approach this timely topic. Thank y ou.
Inspirational!
It was great!!!
I’ve been needing to “do” a timeline for a DAR patriot to show that my guy is the one listed. I think this will help me tremendously. Great webinar
I’ve been procrastinating about using a timeline but I now realize how much easier my searching will become. Filling in blanks is awesome when a person is more aware of where they might be. I’m anxioue to use my spreadsheet to increase my progress. Thank you SO much, Cari!
Learned about some great new sources regarding timelines I will certainly put to use. Thanks Cari and Legacy Family Tree Webinars.
Learned several new things about spreadsheets.
Learned so many new things…resources. Ordered my history book as you started. Will listen to this a second time once it is posted.

Many great ideas for starting a timeline!
Much useful information and good demonstration of validity of this method.
Never knew how useful timelines could be! I use the one in Legacy, but doing an additional Excel one looks like it’ll be very useful to me. Thank you.
One of the best webinars I’ve listened to, and all of them have been good!!!
One of the most interesting and informative webinars yet. Great
Packed with so mush info and resources. Great job.
Really good suggestions I would never have thought of and I am an addict of spreadsheets and timelines, as is my son, so I am sending your presentation to him now. Thank you for sharing your work.
She made the task seem doable. I need to give it a try.

The webinar was excellent. Explanation and examples were great. I’m going to start making timelines now. I’ve been wanting to review my research and I think this is an excellent way to do it. Thank you so much!
There was clear, practical advice that I can use immediately.
Thought provoking. Interesting idea to utilize timelines for filling gaps in addition to sorting records and other pieces of information. Also like the variety of resources that were provided for timeline layouts as well as when searching for gap information. Thank you!
Timelines are a great way to see what was going on in your ancestors life. I use an Excel timeline template, and although I strayed from it for a while, I keep finding myself going back to using it.
Timelines are useful and simple tools that help you compactly see lives.

Very well presented Syllabus and webinar matched, which I like. Thank you great webinar.
Well done. Picked up some good tips. Thank you!
well presented. Enjoyed learning about websites to produce timelines with more visual content to engage family members who normally aren’t so interested. Good topic for all genealogists, no matter the level of experience.
Well-done
Well-presented by a knowledgeable speaker, good pace, effective examples. Granted, I realized my use of timelines and tables is equivalent to hers but still worth listening. The Legacy timeline feature was my favorite tip. I have the software but haven’t fully utilized it yet.
Wonderful information!
