Where To Start Your Family Tree

The ideal place to start is with yourself and your immediate family members and gather all the information you can(eg.birth,baptism,marriage)and the places they happened.Grandparents can be good source of information.

Before going to your relatives it`s a good idea to have a questionnire for each revative as this will make it easier in the furture.

Examples for questionnire

Name
Address
DOB
Place Of Birth
Baptism
Marriage(When and Where)
Husband/Wife/Maiden Name
Parents/Grandparents
Brothers/sisters
Children
Occupation

Also if they have any certificates
Birth
Marriage
Death
Will

When you have collected as much information as you can it`s time to start putting you tree together.

The next good place is your local churchyard,there you can find incriptions which can be very useful
