Family Information

Family Information:

When beginning genenealogy research one of the first things that a researcher should do is to interview relatives to obtain as much information about the family as possible. Research should begin with the researcher's generation, including the researcher's siblings (brothers and sisters) and first cousins. Each additional generation will be researched to fill in the information and ask additional questions. The second generation researched should be the parent's generation, including the parents and their siblings and their first cousins. The third generation researched should be the grandparent's generation, including their siblings and their first cousins. The research should continue with previous generations and their descendents.
