Getting Started in Genealogy There is a lot of good information on the internet on getting started in genealogy by some very knowledgable people, so I’m not going to try to duplicate that effort. It is, however, a topic that deserves to be included Provided below are links to some good sites on getting started in genealogy. What Can I Do First? - “Information from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints”
How to get started on your Family History
- “The Five Steps”
Introduction to Family History and Genealogy
“Family History is the hobby of searching for and recording information about your family. It involves finding out about your ancestors. Genealogy is the science of finding relationships and event information (i.e. when and where were they born, married and died) of your ancestors.”
Twenty Ways to Avoid Genealogical Grief
“Here are some suggestions to help beginners prevent misfortune when learning how to do genealogical research.”

Getting Started
The goal of any Japanese genealogist is to make a connection into the koseki "tree". To find a koseki you must be able to find the local ward office the koseki record is kept, and the name of the head of the family and his/her address in Japan. Thus your initial search for background information in the United States should center around the above requirements. Once the above information is determined, a request for a koseki can be made. Organize the Information You Collected
The only way to organize the myriad of data you will collect is with a software program and a PC. Which software is a personal choice. Below are some WWW pages that list and or rate the different software available.

Other Resources
Usually not very much help but if all other leads fail. Japanese schools, famers organizations (berry pickers, etc.), wholesale produce market, ikebana (flower arranging school), wholesale flower mart records, and other business and social organizations which a relative may have been a member of. Most of these organizations are no longer in existance, but with a little investigation you may be able to find someone who has some of these records stored in their garage or basement. Other Japanese Associations
They may not have information or records, but may be able to point out locations of kenjikai or other local sources of information.

Getting Started in Genealogy
Researching your ancestors and the history of your community can be fun and rewarding. By learning more about your family's history, you will have a better understanding of who you are and your heritage. You can begin by viewing, printing, and entering information on the Record of Ancestry chart. The ancestry chart is provided in a PDF (Portable Document Format) file, which can be viewed or printed using your Web browser and Adobe Acrobat Reader software. Macintosh and Windows versions of Acrobat Reader may be downloaded free of charge from Adobe.
Click here to find out how to obtain the Adobe Acrobat Reader.
Download the Record of Ancestry chart
(Requires Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.0 or later). Remember, you eventually will need to verify your entries by consulting the original records of these events. This careful documentation of family history marks the work of a good genealogist.
Where to begin Your local library can provide you with any number of books from which you can learn the fundamentals of genealogy. Your local librarian can often provide the names and addresses of local genealogical and historical societies. The people in these organizations are more than happy to encourage you in your new hobby and offer helpful advice.

Getting Started in African American Genealogy
How I got started
I am often asked by many persons how I got started in researching my family history. The answer is simple, I have always wanted to know things about my family. Perhaps because my own immediate family was a small one. Perhaps because I was just naturally curious. But I know that most of my interest in knowning my history came from the influence of 3 women in my life. It is those three women who still guide me as their words said to me became my guiding source.
I grew up in Ft. Smith around three very special women my mother, my grandmother, and my great grandmother. Interestingly, each was either a mother-in-law or daughter-in-law to the next. My mother often shared with me details of her own life, having been raised by her own grandmother. My mother's mother Lilly died in the Tuberculosis epidemic that gripped the country while my mother was still an infant. Subsequently, she was raised by a grandmother and an aunt. They provided the guidance and love and direction upon which my mother, Pauline's foundation was built.
My mother's compassion and love for the elderly was showered upon my other special guardians from my childhood-my grandmother Ellen Bass Walton, and my great grandmother Sallie Walton were those two special women.

If you are brand new to genealogy, the *first* thing you should do is take 1/2 hour (or more) and read some general info on getting started with genealogy. There are dozens if not hundreds of "getting started" guides on the Internet. Here are a few that look well written. I found these just by typing "genealogy getting started" on a web search engine. Getting Started in Genealogy and Family History Tips for Beginners Getting Started in Genealogy Dear Myrtle's Genealogy Lessons - This one looks more in depth than most of the other beginner's guides listed here. You may not have time to go through all of this, but the more you take time for, the more equipped you will be for your genealogy research. State Library of North Carolina's Guide - Some of this is NC-specific, but much of it is general info. Good discussion of state and federal Vital Records. The principles of researching state records given here will apply to other states as well. RootsWeb Beginners Guide - Since RootsWeb is a powerful genealogy site on the Internet, this tends to give good info about using computers and the internet for genealogical research.

Lisa Shea

is BellaOnline's Genealogy Host Getting Started in Genealogy OK, you've decided to look into genealogy. How do you get started on your great-grandparents, when all you know is a name and a place?
Don't assume you can just search the web. While thousands of genealogists do spend their time loading files up, they usually load up their own personal histories. Most of the time, unless you're lucky, you'll need to do some old fashioned research to dig up your own family!
Find the Death Certificate!
Most of the time you don't know exactly where someone came from. Or when they were born. But you can find out where they died! Write the town/city hall where they died and ask for a copy. Usually it's $5. It'll tell you their birthplace, age, maybe parents, maybe how they died or who survived them. Then find the marriage/birth certificates Those have tons of information. Get them from the same place - the town or city hall. In Ireland, churches keep that kind of information. Write the church in the area you're interested in!

Getting Started in Genealogy and Family History
Genealogy and Family History
Genealogy is the study of the descents of families and persons from an ancestor or ancestors. This study is undertaken by many people out of interest in their personal and family origins. As a hobby it can become pleasantly addictive, at least to the person concerned. However the study is also undertaken professionally, not just in order to provide a commercial service that can be used by people who are seeking help in researching their origins, but also for very serious legal and financial reasons. Thus there are accepted standards for doing genealogy "properly" - standards that we recommend you seek to learn and emulate. The term Family History used to be regarded as synonymous with Genealogy, but now it applies to biographical research into one's ancestors - the aim typically being to produce a well-documented narrative history, of interest to family members and perhaps future generations. Thus the study of family history involves putting flesh on the skeleton that is produced by genealogy - and involves the study of the historical circumstances and geographical situation in which ancestors lived. (The resulting ability to associate historical events with particular generations or individuals of your family can help history come really alive for you.)

Researching your roots can be a lifelong project. With so many records and resources, it's not easy to find a starting point. While every family history follows a different path, there are general guidelines that every beginner should know.
Document your Living Relatives
While you may be tempted to begin your research online, the first thing you should do is turn off your computer and pick up a pen and paper. "The starting point for anyone doing family history research is their own family," said Mary Popovich, a member of the Association for Professional Genealogists with 16 years of experience. "Older relatives should be interviewed to see what they know and papers should be sorted to see what information they contain."
Construct your family tree using your own knowledge. The birth, death and marriage certificates of your living relatives and ancestors can help verify your research. Letters and diaries also provide clues.

I don't know where to begin on my genealogy Welcome to the wonderful world of genealogy. Whether you've been working on your family history for several years or just getting started, Genealogy Today has resources to help you with your research. The Internet has changed the face of genealogy forever. Once relegated to challenging library work or long distance traveling, genealogy now has a powerful "instant access" aspect. So potent is this new component of research, many are so overwhelmed that they end up failing to get accurate and verifiable information. Our best advice for people just getting started is to take a timeout, purchase a book or other tutorial resource and just spend a few days reading about genealogy. One electronic resource we recommend is Climbing Your Family Tree , an interactive tutorial CD-Rom that lets you click and visit sites as it describes how they fit into your research efforts. If you prefer a printed reference, try Genealogy for Dummies , or The Idiot's Guide to Genealogy . The titles sound condescending, but they really are excellent guides for people just being introduced to genealogy who want to get started quickly.
