How To Do It?

I found this web site.

How have others found the information they needed without going to the Library downtown? Some of the sites want you to join them as a member and pay for the information. I want to do this searching but I don't want to feel guilty for joining and then not doing it. I am also interested in the histories of my ancestors. Is there a place where those can be found as well?

Ellisisland.org is an excellent site for FH. You do not have to pa anything to join, just register.

There are different sites that can provide different types of information. I would suggest these two:

www.cydislist.com

www.usgenweb.com

They are not pay sites, but they can direct you to information. I have worked with research on ancestry.com and have found very useful information there ... however it is a pay site. I share a subscription with my mother so one of us is doing research. I also go to the family history center in our ward and do reserach there on the ancestry.com as the church as a paid subscription to it. It is worth it to try it that way BEFORE you decide to purchase on your own.

Good luck! I have found many interesting things as I have researched my family lines. :animatedidea:

Your welcome. :)

I have been a family history consultant in my ward in the past, and currently (although on leave) serve in the family history library in my ward. I explain things better by showing people where to look and how to look. I hope this helps you, and that you enjoy your search.

It so nice to have you here with us.

As soon as thing settle down a bit I just might need so more help. :)
