Anyone wishing to start a search for their ancestors needs to start with themselves and work backwards
one generation at a time. This way, each generation can be documented as linking to the previous
one, and a family genealogy can be accurately connected back to it's earliest recorded ancestors.
Before the patron begins searching for all her family documents, she needs to learn about the forms used to
organize the data that found. These forms are still available on paper, but now also
in fancy computer programs that will sort and index the information entered.
