Sources for Historical Research
When conducting historical research, it is a best practice to use multiple sources in order to corroborate a historical claim. At the HCHS, we typically use at least three sources to determine whether a claim is plausible about a historic place, person, or event. In addition to our own extensive collections, we often use external sites when conducting research. Below are many of our most commonly used external links, organized by geographic location
