It might sound like it's crazy to go to eBay and expect to find anything that helps you with your genealogy research, but it happened to me. I'm going to show you the tips and tricks that I use to keep an eye on items that get posted on eBay, receive alerts to new items that might have gotten out of our family, and how I was able to purchase my great-great-Grandfather's Civil War medal after it was posted for sale by a non-family member on eBay.This post contains affiliate links.
I have been amateur genealogist since I was a child. I was fascinated with one branch of my mother's side of the family, but as I aged and things like DNA testing became available, I realized I was more than just one branch of our family tree. I started to want to learn everything about all eight of my great-grandparents and the generations their lives.
