How do I trace the history of my Georgia ancestor? Back to main GCSGA page If you are brand new to genealogy, the *first* thing you should do is take 1/2 hour (or more) and read some general info on getting started with genealogy. There are dozens if not hundreds of "getting started" guides on the Internet. Here are a few that look well written. I found these just by typing "genealogy getting started" on a web search engine. Getting Started in Genealogy and Family History Tips for Beginners Getting Started in Genealogy Dear Myrtle's Genealogy Lessons - This one looks more in depth than most of the other beginner's guides listed here. You may not have time to go through all of this, but the more you take time for, the more equipped you will be for your genealogy research. State Library of North Carolina's Guide - Some of this is NC-specific, but much of it is general info. Good discussion of state and federal Vital Records. The principles of researching state records given here will apply to other states as well. RootsWeb Beginners Guide - Since RootsWeb is a powerful genealogy site on the Internet, this tends to give good info about using computers and the internet for genealogical research.

Getting Started How do I get started tracing my family tree? Climbing Your Family Tree Have you ever climbed a tree and sat enjoying the view? Well, get ready to climb; only this tree-the view from it-will be the most fascinating you have ever seen. Your family will want to climb the tree someday, too, so it is important to carefully record your findings in a permanent place for everyone to enjoy long after you have become their ancestor. Linking generations and setting each in its unique historical perspective brings them to life again for everyone. Through you, your children will look into eyes that are very like their own. Looking Around You Begin at home. Personal knowledge can form the first limbs of your family tree. First, make a simple chart, beginning with you, your parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents. Search for birth, marriage, and death certificates, and other documents that might provide names, dates and locations. Then look at Bible records, old letters, photographs and family memorabilia. Label everything you recognize. Now you are well on your way to forming the branches of your family tree - and it will begin to bud. Contact family members to ask questions about their lives and those of other family members. Where did they live - what part of the country - what kind of dwelling? Did they move around while growing up? When were their relatives born; when did they die? Take along some of the old photos and attic treasures to jog their memories. And be sure to ask if you may see their old family records, letters, and memorabilia that might help you expand your search.

23. Getting Started In Genealogy And Family History getting started in genealogy and Family History How to get started in genealogyfrom BBC Online provides a comprehensive and readable introduction to http://www.genuki.org.uk/gs/

GENUKI Contents Getting Started in Genealogy and Family History Genealogy and Family History Decide what your aim is Work backwards Document your sources ... APPENDIX: Other Introductory Accounts Genealogy and Family History Genealogy is the study of the descents of families and persons from an ancestor or ancestors. This study is undertaken by many people out of interest in their personal and family origins. As a hobby it can become pleasantly addictive, at least to the person concerned. However the study is also undertaken professionally, not just in order to provide a commercial service that can be used by people who are seeking help in researching their origins, but also for very serious legal and financial reasons. Thus there are accepted standards for doing genealogy "properly" - standards that we recommend you seek to learn and emulate. The term Family History used to be regarded as synonymous with Genealogy, but now it applies to biographical research into one's ancestors - the aim typically being to produce a well-documented narrative history, of interest to family members and perhaps future generations. Thus the study of family history involves putting flesh on the skeleton that is produced by genealogy - and involves the study of the historical circumstances and geographical situation in which ancestors lived. (The resulting ability to associate historical events with particular generations or individuals of your family can help history come really alive for you.) This server aims to provide you with information and sources of guidance on both genealogy and family history. However in this brief account we will concentrate on providing some very basic advice on genealogy - we hope it will help you whether you are an inhabitant of the British Isles, wanting to start by tracing your immediate forebears, or you live overseas, and have found that some of your perhaps distant ancestors came from here, and now would like to find out more about them.

Lincolnshire Contents Genealogy - Getting Started The First Steps "I'm really new to this genealogy thing and I've got this information from the family bible. I haven't a clue where to go next to find out any information. I'm tied to my home in Podunk so travelling to places to research is really difficult. Any suggestions?" Welcome "newbie". That's the term used for someone new to Internet research. It's not perjorative, so no one is putting you down, but understand that some members of the online community are quickly "put off" by people who expect the Internet to have all the answers, or the volunteers who provide help to have all the time in the world to assist you. While the internet is "slowly" starting to make things easier, it does not replace traditional research, trips to the library and good old-fashioned "elbow grease." My way of saying, "do your homework." This page is dedicated to the new researcher. First of all, I assume that you're here because you have some evidence that your family is from Lincolnshire. There is nothing more frustrating to those of us who volunteer time to have someone say, "Well, my family is English and I was hoping they might be from Lincolnshire." Although Lincolnshire is the second largest county in area, our English ancestors were very mobile and you need to narrow your search area. So, first thing is to find out what part of England, and specifically Lincolnshire, your ancestors hailed from.

Read Step 2 of the series. Few hobbies anywhere offer the reward of genealogy. The people who start their family history soon find themselves on a journey of discovery that takes them to places they never before imagined-including visits to their family's homeland and learning who they really were. In this column we will walk you, step-by-step, through this exciting journey. You will learn how to get started, how to record the information you already know, where to find the information you don't know, who you can talk with to get help when the "digging" gets tough, and even how the home computer can help you with this fulfilling task. So walk with us along this road to discovery, and meet some of your ancestors as we travel. Every journey begins with a single step. The first step in doing genealogy is to begin with yourself. Think of your genealogy as a collection of individuals, one of whom is you, and each of whom has had a series of easily identified life events. These events include the obvious such as birth, christening, education, marriage, military service, employment, death, and burial. They are important enough to us that we usually have some record or evidence of their existence. This is the stuff that genealogy is made of. Begin your project by writing down all the information you have on your own life events. This includes recording the important pieces of information: who is the person involved, what was the event, where and when did the event occur, and what evidence is there that the event actually took place (what is the source of the information). In writing this information down, there are some guidelines you should follow.

Getting Started with Genealogy World Wide Web Resources LP Library Resources Steps to getting Stared with Genealogy Step 1 The first rule of genealogy is to start with yourself and work back! Talk to parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, or anyone else in the family who is older than you are. Ask questions like: What's your full name? When and where were you born? Where did you grow up? When and where were you married? Whom did you marry? What is his/her full name? How many children did you have? What are their full names? What were your parents' full names? When and where were your parents born? Where did your parents grow up? When and where did your parents marry? What do you know about your grandparents? Do you have any family Bibles, papers, or photographs? It may be helpful to tape record the people you talk to in addition to writing down their answers. Keep the tapes for future reference. Be sure to ask permission before taping someone. Step 2 Begin a genealogy chart like the one on the back of this sheet. Fill in as many blanks as possible. If you do not have exact dates, pencil in approximate dates. Use pencils for preliminary work. Always use letters to indicate months. Write surnames in all capital letters. Use the maiden names of your female ancestors.

Getting Started in Genealogy Do a survey of all the sources you have at home , such as bibles, letters, certificates, newspaper clippings, etc. Then interview all your relatives. Recording their recollections on tape is the best idea, but at least write down everything they tell you. Now you can fill out the pedigree chart with all the names, dates, and places you have. Decide on one family line to research. By working on just one line at first, it is easier to build your research skills more quickly and effectively. As you work on each family, make a family group sheet showing the parents and children. First you need to confirm the information you found in step 1 , if there is no proof. Then you will move back from what you know into the unknown. You will do this by consulting original records other people have compiled. To know which records to consult, it is a good idea to

It doesn't matter how few or how many facts you know, because even the smallest seeds can grow into enormous family trees!

These are excellent places to look for genealogical information about your family. The topic Finding information at home will give you a good list of places to look.

Two major events shaped Jewish life of the past two hundred years: migration and the Holocaust. Few Jews today live where their ancestors lived a century or two ago. As a result many Jews believe they cannot trace their family roots because: My family name was changed (at Ellis Island) No one in my family knows about the past No one is left alive to tell me about my family's past All the records were destroyed in the Holocaust My town was wiped off the face of the map These statements are myths.

Document your Living Relatives While you may be tempted to begin your research online, the first thing you should do is turn off your computer and pick up a pen and paper. "The starting point for anyone doing family history research is their own family," said Mary Popovich, a member of the Association for Professional Genealogists with 16 years of experience. "Older relatives should be interviewed to see what they know and papers should be sorted to see what information they contain." Construct your family tree using your own knowledge. The birth, death and marriage certificates of your living relatives and ancestors can help verify your research. Letters and diaries also provide clues.
