Beginners First Steps in Family History
pioxev...@yahoo.com
Commencing your Family History actually begins at home. I would
recommend you record your own details first. For example, your birth,
christening/baptism (if appropriate), marriage, divorce(s), remarriage
(s), the dates of birth, death etc (if appropriate) of your spouse,
children and grandchildren.
Congratulations, you have started your Family History. You must now
work backwards and trace back your ancestors. If you have a common
name, the challenge is more difficult, but don't despair, you're not
alone. If you have an unusual name, your task may be easier than you
think. Technically, it should be easier to trace the correct line of
your ancestors. Start following your father's line then your mothers.
Once you're stuck start talking to your oldest relatives. Hopefully,
granddad or grandma is still alive. Better still, the great grand
parents.
Often, when you dig enough someone may already have constructed a
family tree. Get a copy and expand on it. You may have a relative
overseas that you can work with to further your research. You should
try to obtain any family records such as birth, death & marriages,
wills, family photos, old bibles that may contain family information,
diaries, letters and anything else that contains family
information....

All the more reason to tread carefully. You're giving them license to bill
your CC whenever they wish, however much they wish. Smells like a week
old flounder .

Which is one of the best reasons to use "virtual card numbers" for
onlinepurchases (if your card company offers it). You can set maximum
$ amount and a time limit (2 months, etc) for the card number used at
each online vendor - to ensure that there are no future automatic
charges.
