Genealogy Basics Getting Started in Genealogy If you're just beginning to research your family tree, we hope you find this section of our site to be a useful guide for getting started. For many family history enthusiasts, an intriguing tale of an ancestor or a cherished family artifact are the spark for a lifetime of research. For others, obtaining a collection of old letters, newsclippings or photographs may raise questions about the who, when, and where that are prevalent throughout genealogy. What do you need to get started? There are just a few basic items you should have available as you begin working on your family tree. A few sheets of paper or a notebook, a few empty folders, and a pen or pencil. As your research continues, you may also find a tape recorder, camera, and computer to be useful tools, but they certainly are not requirements to get started. Better to get started and add those tools later. What is the best way to get started? The best way to get started is to download our free genealogy charts and then review our brief step-by-step genealogy guide. As you collect facts about your family, don't forget to note where you obtained them so that you can refer back to them at a future date (seasoned genealogists call this 'citing your sources'). Additional details for advancing your research can be found using the links below:

Family Reunion Part One of a Series of Articles to Ease You into Researching Your Family Tree! Genealogy is defined in the dictionary as 'descent traced continually from ancestor', a study of pedigree. For most of us, it simply means trying to figure out what relation Aunt Millie's great -great grandson is to our daughter in law. It can boggle the mind. Most people never realize that something as simple as a family reunion is a gathering of many leaves in the family tree. The people and their stories are what make up the family history and is the first tool in any search. This is the simplest place to start the gathering of information. You already know some of your family tree. You certainly know yourself and this is the best place to start. Sit down and write down your facts; your full name, the date and place of your birth (include the hospital or maternity home). Don't forget to include christening or baptismal information.

GENUKI Contents Getting Started in Genealogy and Family History Genealogy and Family History Decide what your aim is Work backwards Document your sources ... Buzzwords 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.

Follow Us on Twitter Genealogy Learning Center Getting The Most from What You've Found We�ve come a long way technologically with family history research tools. Years ago locating a record sometimes meant many hours cranking away at a microfilm reader and often transcribing the record because there was no machine to print it out. Now, with many records, we can sit in the comfort of our homes and locate our ancestors with the click of a mouse. Another click prints a copy, and with another click we can attach it to our electronic family tree. Voila! We�re done. Ah, not so fast. While I love the advances that technology has brought us, sometimes we�re a little too quick to attach the record to our tree and move on. That wonderful find is relegated to a kind of electronic purgatory where we never fully explore it.
