Before Your Library Visit:
You should do the following things before you come. Volunteers at a family history center near you can help you with these steps.

Organize Your Materials
Gather together information you have about your family.
Talk to other family members and get copies of their information.
Use a genealogy program like Personal Ancestral File to record information about your ancestors. Organize historical records (like birth certificates, marriage licenses, etc.) of your family by family group (such as a husband and wife and their children) or surname
to make it easy for you to find the records.


See What’s Already Been Done

See what other people have already discovered about your family
by searching for your ancestors in collections of precompiled genealogies like Ancestral File or Pedigree Resource File on our website.


Decide What You Want to Learn

Decide which ancestor or family you want to learn more about. What specific questions would you like to know? Who are the parents of Warren Dodge? When did Frank Barnes die? Who are the children of Sarah Brewster and Thomas Barnes? Here are three important pointers:
  1. It is easier to find information about people that lived more recently.
  2. It is easier to work backward through time. For example, find death, then marriage, and then birth information.
  3. Verify what you know, and then use it to look for what you don’t know.
Identify Available Records
  • Identify the places where your ancestors lived or may have lived. 
  • Then search the Family History Library Catalog to see what records are available for that place. 
  • Make a list of the records that are likely to contain the answers to your questions. 

Be sure to include call numbers or film and item numbers. An easy way to do this is to print out the listings from the Family History Library Catalog.

PLEASE NOTE
If you know in advance what microfilms you'll need at the library, you can order them before your visit. Library staff will retrieve them so that they will be ready for you when you arrive. Films listed in the Catalog as "Vault" films may take up to three days to retrieve.
