First thing First!
1. First Things First! Gather What You Already Know
Before searching records, start with your own family.
Gather as much information as you can about:
  • Full names, including maiden names and nicknames
  • Birth dates
  • Birthplaces
  • Marriage dates and locations
  • Death dates and locations
  • Parents’ names
  • Grandparents’ names
  • Great-grandparents’ names
  • Places where family members lived
  • Family stories, photographs, letters, obituaries, Bibles, certificates, and other records
Go back as far as you can with the information already available to you.
