FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | APRIL 2015 37
How do I put my family tree together? Start with yourself and
work backward. You are the first generation. Your parents are
the second generation. Grandparents are the third generation,
and so forth.
At first, focus on one surname. Do your paternal side, then
your maternal side of the family. Write down everything you
know and can find, then fill in the blanks later.
Interview relatives. Concentrate on the oldest generations
first, and don't wait until it's too late. Ask about photos, letters,
bibles, heirlooms, family documents, stories, places, events,
work, travel and anything that might be informative and
interesting. The more the better.
Use simple, standard family tree forms that allow you to enter
names and data. This will help organize your information and
will show you what you're missing.
There's much more, but this represents the basics of how to
start your family tree.
