What The event: birth, death, marriage, etc. Where A very important thing you need to know is the place where a person was born, married, lived or died, etc. When An (at least) approximate date for a vital event (birth, death, marriage, etc.) How do I keep track of all of this information? Paper forms and filing cabinets Genealogy specific software Storage on your computer, on flash drives, external hard drives, in the “cloud”, etc. Stored in a shared family tree in a database such as Ancestry.com or FamilySearch.org.

These resources are published as periodicals, books, e-books and computer databases or websites. Evaluate Compiled Information: Evaluate Written and Oral Evidence Remember the old adage: Just because it's in print (or online, or what Grandma told you) doesn't make it true. Be particularly wary of copying other’s research. Finding Published Genealogies: Look in WorldCat for books in other libraries. From the www.laramiecountylibrary.org, click on “WYLD Catalog”, then “Databases” . Then choose “WorldCat”. You’ll need a library card number and PIN. The default PIN is WYLD. Ask the 3rd floor “Ask Here” desk to ILL (Interlibrary Loan) the book for you.

Ancestry Library and Heritage Quest databases: Genealogy Periodicals: Read a general genealogy magazine to learn new search techniques: Family Chronicle Family Tree Internet Genealogy (etc.) To find past articles use the Periodical Source Index (PERSI). Available on the Heritage Quest database. Look for Original Records: Primary Sources A primary source is one created by an eyewitness of an event. A secondary source is based on evidence gathered after an event occurred by a person who was not an eyewitness. Census Records: One of the best original records In the U.S., a census has been taken every 10 years from 1790 through 2010. 1790 to 1940 censuses are available to genealogists to search. More about the U.S. Federal Census: 1790 through 1840 censuses listed head of household plus number of others living there. Beginning in 1850, census lists all names, ages, places of birth, occupations, etc. U.S. Federal Census cont. 1870 census indicates if the individual’s parents were foreign born. 1880 and later censuses added: Birthplaces (country or state only) of each person’s parents. U.S. Federal Census cont. 1890 federal census was (mostly) destroyed by fire. 1900 and 1910 censuses include: the age of each individual, how many years he had been married, year of immigration, citizenship status. U.S. Federal Census cont. 1920 and 1930 censuses also: age & lists the year of naturalization. Start with 1940 and work backwards. Searching the U.S. Census: Start with most recent census (1940) and work backwards. Note similar names living nearby. Watch for spelling errors. Do not be wedded to one surname spelling. Always keep track of the source. Searching Census Information on Computer Databases: Census Information is available at: Ancestry.com, Ancestry Library Heritage Quest , familysearch.org and elsewhere. Heritage Quest can be searched at home with your library card # and PIN #. The default PIN is wyld. Ancestry Library: Ancestry Library is the library version of Ancestry.com (a paid subscription website). Available for searching only in the library. Heritage Quest: Heritage Quest is another great genealogy database provided through Wyoming libraries. It also provides access to 1790- 1940 census images (and much more). Vital Records: Vital records are civil records of births, marriage, deaths, etc. Keeping vital records only began after the mid 19th or early in the 20th century. Start with yourself and work backwards. Then obtain birth, marriage and, if applicable, death certificates for your parents, then grandparents, etc., Birth Certificates: Birth certificates reveal: Baby’s name, birth date and parents Birthplaces of both parents, their age, their occupations, and their address The number of other children Death Certificates: Death certificates can reveal: Place and cause of death. Name of deceased’s parents, Residence at time of death, Exact date of death, and date of burial Name of informant and relationship to deceased Funeral home that handled the arrangements, name of cemetery Marriage Records: Before the 1850’s look for them with town clerks in New England and county clerks. After 1850s at State Board of Health/Bureau of Vital Statistics. Other sources of marriage records: Justice of the Peace registers Church records Where to Write for Vital Records. “Google it” or use another search engine but look for official government websites (.gov or state.gov). Websites such as “Where To Write for Vital Records” http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/w2w.htm Social Security Death Index: Available at www.familysearch.org www.ancestry.com and Ancestry Library Edition.

  • Computers Vs. Humans: Comparing Outputs of Genealogy Programs
    Computers vs. Humans: Comparing Output of Genealogy Programs Computers vs. Humans: Comparing Output of Genealogy Programs © 2009, Debbie Parker Wayne First publication rights granted to Digital Genealogist, July 2009. All other rights reserved. Computers are very good at handling repetitive, logical tasks—not so good at creativity. Any fan of Star Trek: The Next Generation will remember the trouble Commander Data had with tasks that required feelings or creativity. Even the imaginative minds that created Star Trek: TNG could not imagine computers had advanced so much by the 24th century that an android could rival the creativity of the human mind. There has been an ongoing discussion in the genealogical world about whether genealogy programs can “create” output or reports that meet the creative standards we strive for today—more than a list of begats—an interesting family history with analysis of kinship communities and social context that makes the reader care about the family and want to know more. Some genealogists expect a well-written narrative to be magically spit out by a genealogy program’s report generator. Genealogy databases allow a genealogical summary report to be generated using canned sentences that Sergeant Joe Friday would love—just the facts. The more advanced programs allow customization of the output sentences and source citations to make the narrative more exciting and interesting. Some genealogists think there is no reason for a genealogy program to offer these options. They want only a bare-bones family summary with birth, marriage, and death information. This summary is copied into a word processor where the sentences that flow from the creative juices are then added.
