You start with yourself and identify what you know, including gathering copies of important vital documents.\u00a0 Then you move onto your parents and do the same thing, then onto each generation after that.\u00a0 All while recording the information you find out in your genealogy forms.\u00a0 The basic forms you should use for genealogy research are the Pedigree form and the Family Group Sheet.\u00a0 These forms will help you keep track of the new family members you find.\u00a0 Also helpful in your research are the Research Calendar, Source Summary and the Census extraction forms.\u00a0 These forms are tools that are helpful in keeping you from duplicating research efforts and keep you on track.\u00a0 When you fill out the information on your family in the pedigree chart and the family group sheet, you can then analyze the information you found and see the holes that are missing in your research.\u00a0 These holes of missing information is where your furthur research should head.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As you go up your family tree and get farther away from yourself in your genealogy research, the better your chances are that you will find the State, town, village, rancho or area or\u00a0 your family is from.\u00a0 Finding out the town, village, rancho or area that your family is from is very helpful in your research.
