Tips to Make a Family Tree

Start with what you know – you and your living relatives
Ask your relatives for help using their memories and family documents such as Bibles, birth and marriage certificates, journals and military records.
Review other websites to see what others have discovered about your family lines. Be careful as some of the family trees on line are not accurate. Check their sources.
Focus on primary sources such as copies of birth, census, death and marriage records. Many of these are available on line for free or a nominal fee.
Be patient – it can take a long time to uncover your genealogy.
Consider CAPITALIZING the surname – this will help it stand out when reviewing your records
List dates as 1 Jan 1890 to avoid confusion over formats such as dd/mm/yy or mm/dd/yy
List locations or places as City/Township, County, State, Country. For example: Houston, Harris County, Texas, USA
