He holds an M.A. and a Ph.D. from The Catholic University of America. He is a faculty member of the Institute of Genealogy and Historical Research at Samford University in Birmingham\, Alabama; the Salt Lake Institute of Genealogy; and Boston University’s Genealogical Research Program. Professor Colletta also has been an instructor and course coordinator for the National Institute on Genealogical Research\, the Genealogical Institute of Texas\, and the Genealogical Institute of Mid-America. \n\n\n\nHow to Write Biography\n\n\n\nYou’ve explored a broad array of sources for discovering the facts of your ancestors’ lives\, and you’ve depicted those facts schematically on pedigree charts and family group sheets. In last month’s meeting you saw how those bare-bone facts may be fleshed out into real-life events\, which is what many of us are seeking in genealogy. A narrative genealogy or family history is a collection of biographies of people related by blood—in other words\, an anthology of the life stories of kinfolk. In this lecture\, we’ll see the process of constructing and narrating the biography of an ancestor. \n\n\n\nCase Study: Identifying a Theme\n\n\n\nThe timelines of Joseph Ring and his younger brother George offer a case study in identifying themes. Joseph and George Ring were born into a Germanic family in Lorraine\, France; Joseph was born in 1832\, and George in 1834. Both work as skilled tradesmen. In 1853\, at the age of 19\, George emigrated to Buffalo\, New York. There\, in the city’s populous German-speaking community\, he found a familiar environment\, with German parishes\, fraternal societies\, banks\, and stores. But in 1858\, George moved far south to the Yazoo-Mississippi Delta\, probably seeking to make his fortune in cotton. Sometime after George left France\, Joseph also came to Buffalo. But when George headed south to seek his fortune\, Joseph stayed in New York and married Barbara Miller. The two shared an identical heritage\, and they started having a child every two years.
