Family History Organizer
Family history research becomes easier to continue and share when discoveries and unanswered questions are organized consistently.
What to organize
- Start with yourself and close relatives, recording names, relationships, dates, locations, and stories.
- Record the source of each discovery so information can be evaluated later.
- Add names, approximate dates, locations, and relationships to photographs whenever possible.
- Maintain a list of unresolved research questions to guide future work.
