HERE ARE SOME FEW IDEAS THAT I PUT IN ORDER TO HELP YOU BEGIN ON YOUR FAMILY GENEALOGY AND WHERE TO GO FOR SOURCES.  THE REASON(S) I PUT THESE HELPFUL IDEAS IN ORDER WILL HELP YOU LAY THE FOUNDATION OF YOUR FAMILY TREE IS THAT INFORMATION IS PASSED DOWN FROM GENERATIONS TO GENERATIONS.

1) TALK TO YOUR LIVING FAMILY MEMBERS, SUCH AS GRANDPARENT(S), PARENT(S), SIBLING(S), AND COUSIN(S).

REMEMBER THE DAYS OF OLD, CONSIDER THE YEARS OF MANY GENERATIONS: ASK THY FATHER, AND HE WILL SHEW THEE, THY ELDERS, AND THEY WILL TELL THEE.  DEUTERONOMY 32:7

2) LOOK THROUGH ANY FAMILY BIBLES, SCRAPBOOKS, JOURNALS, DIARIES, AND CHESTS/TRUNKS. 

THIS SHALL BE WRITTEN FOR THE GENERATION TO COME: AND THE PEOPLE WHICH SHALL BE CREATED SHALL PRAISE THE LORD.  PSALMS 102:18

3) GO TO THE LIBRARIES, COURTHOUSES, CHURCHES, CEMETERIES, & RESEARCH THE INTERNET.

FOR ENQUIRE, I PRAY THEE, OF THE FORMER AGE, AND PREPARE THYSELF TO THE SEARCH OF THEIR FATHERS: JOB 8:8
