Download Discovering the Evidence in Church Records Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Early in the history of America, the church played a critical role in recording vital records. These recordkeeping practices were brought with them from the old country where the state church was required by law to record details on all citizens of the realm. After the American Revolution, these practices changed over time. However, it was not until the 1900s that most states began to record births and deaths as mandated by law. Therefore, searching the church records is necessary to build your family tree more accurately. This Research Guide will give you details on how religious unrest in Europe affected migrations to America; in-depth details on why church records are important to your research; methods of tracing hard-to-find ancestors by religion; background information about non-conformist religions; sources for researching in the British Isles and Europe; instruction on how to use the evidence to trace and prove family relationships and migrations; and an introduction to large religious collections, some of which can be accessed online.

Download Find Names for the Temple Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
Whether your family tree is partially filled out, mostly complete, or full with many LDS relatives, this step-by-step method will help you discover new relatives and reserve their temple ordinances. You will review the accuracy of your tree, analyze your pedigree, and make a list of ancestors to research. Those with many LDS relatives will locate research opportunities by diving deeper into tree analysis and listing ancestors who were not members of the LDS Church. Using descendancy research to find cousins will open doors for those will full family trees. Instead of selecting random ancestors, you will systematically view descendancy trees for each of the ancestors in your list. By evaluating each descendancy tree, you can determine which branches are most likely to contain candidates for further research likely to be found in available records. Once you have chosen a relative to focus on, you'll begin a research project. Research begins by choosing a research question. Next you will create a simple research plan and research log. When you have completed your searches, you will then record what you found in FamilySearch, including adding sources and new relatives to the tree, and then write a summary of your research. After merging duplicates you will be ready to reserve temple ordinances. After you've successfully found names for the temple, you can repeat the process by going back to your list of candidates for further research and begin again with a new research question. Now you won't run out of research opportunities! As you research each relative one by one, you will grow to love them and think of them as friends. As President Eyring said, "your heart will be bound to theirs forever."
