about

Nathaniel Lane Taylor holds a Ph.D. in medieval European history, and has taught history at the university level for a number of years. A resident of Rumford, Rhode Island, he divides his time between raising his four small children, teaching on a part-time basis, and writing. He also undertakes commissioned genealogical research on a selective basis. His primary interests lie in the history and evolution of genealogy as a field, and the intersections between genealogy and other forms of history.

The genealogist’s sketchbook is a holding tank for thoughts and work on various themes related to family history, or to his family’s history.
