My Genealogy Findings (so far...)

I've been researching my family history for a little more that a year now. I've found lots of information, and I still have a lot more to find. I've gathered a lot of information on my own, and I've received lots of information from others, especially people I've met via the Internet. As far as this page is concerned, I'm adding more details from my findings as time allows. As far as my research is concerned, I'm working on finding more information wherever I can, and on documenting the information I've received from others with as much primary evidence as possible.

I consider genealogy a life-long endeavor. I'm currently in what I call the "first phase" of my research, in which I'm concentrating only on my direct ancestors. When I've found "enough" of them, I'll start working on finding all of their decendants. :)

Let's get down to business. Here's the name index.

Or, you could start at the table of contents.

Good Genealogy Books (you can buy them now from Amazon.com):

The Researcher's Guide to American Genealogy

This is a great book to help you get started with a genealogy project. I recommend reading it before you start looking for all those ancestors. It will help you figure out where to look, what to look for, how to organize your research, and how to keep up with where all that information came from.

Cite Your Sources

One of the most important parts of serious genealogy research is keeping up with where all that information came from. As you'll learn from the book mentioned above, you'll want to be able both to prove (as much as possible) the validity of your information, and leave a trail that others will be able to follow in years to come. This book will show you the proper method of citing the sources (as in a bibliography) of your genealogy findings.

I use The Master Genealogist to keep up with my genealogy findings. I think it's really good. Check it out!
