6 Family Tree Researching Tips
1. Identify Existing Family Tree Resources
The first step when researching one’s family tree is to find out what is already known, and what research has already been done.
2. Choose a Genealogy Program
Next, choose an online genealogy program to use. (More information about options here.) While there are also desktop options, online programs have the advantage of surviving any unforeseen damage to your home computer, where years of work can potentially be lost in one day.
3. Choose a Genealogy Search Engine
In the old days, researchers had to page through dusty volumes, order hard copies of records from their original locations or spend hours scrolling through microfilm.
Genealogy Research Websites
Additional family tree genealogy websites include the following:
Archives.com
FamilySearch.org
Findmypast.com
MyHeritage.com
4. Begin With Genealogical Facts You Already Know
You are now ready to use an online search engine to start researching your family tree. Begin with facts you already know, such as the name of a grandparent or great-grandparent born prior to 1940. (Census records and vital records prior to 1940 are easier to pull up. To protect privacy, more recent records are generally not digitally available.)
Types of genealogy records to search for
Vital records are those kept by governments that record birth, marriage, and death. In addition to vital records, there are many other types of official records you can find that will assist your family tree research process.
Examples of optimal initial records to search for include the following:
birth certificates
death certificates
census records
marriage certificates
divorce certificates
naturalization records
military records
social security records
5. Always Attach Your Sources
As you find additional ancestors, enter the information in your online pedigree chart. Copy the URL of each record you find and use it to attach the record to the appropriate people in your family tree.

Genealogy has become a top hobby worldwide. Chances are, you know someone who can help you learn the ropes.
