Finding your roots

Simple steps to start researching your genealogy

Searching for family history and digging deep to find all the roots to the branches on your family tree can be a daunting task but equally so, it can be an exciting and rewarding endeavor.

Many people are lucky enough to have past ancestors who have done their part to keep a fairly accurate record of family history.

It will save you a lot of time and work.
