Genealogy and Your Family Tree

There are many resources for you to use when researching your family tree. Start with the family Bible, photographs, birth certificates, death certificates and other family items. The basic places to start would be probate records, church records and military records. Don’t forget the online databases that specialize in genealogy such as Census Online, Ancestry, Family Search and RootsWeb’s. Key places to gain information are the vital records and federal census records. If you are still unsure how to proceed you can buy a program to help you organize your information. When you are researching your family tree the most important thing to remember is to cite all your sources. http://www.familygenealogyandhistory.com/2009/06/23/researching-your-family-tree.html
