Family
Tree Chart
A family tree chart records
the ancestors from whom you directly descend--those
for whom you intend to compile a complete and
correct family unit. It shows at a glance the
progress you have made towards this goal and what
remains to be done.

Research
Calendar
The research calendar
gives an account of every family tree source you
have searched and serves as a reminder of what you
have already done and where you have found pertinent
information.

Family
Tree Research Extract
Use
the research extract sheets to summarize family
tree information which cannot be photocopied, for
which there is no document in your possession, or
for things such as deeds which may be time-consuming
or difficult to reread quickly when you need information
from the copy you have. |

Correspondence
Record
When making a family
tree it is important to keep track of those with
whom you have corresponded, the reasons for writing,
and whether or not you have already received an
answer. |

|
Family
Group Sheet
Each piece of information
concerning a family tree member and his/her family
is placed on a worksheet. Since the end result of
your research efforts will be to compile complete,
correct and connected families, the use of family
group sheets from the beginning will make the compilation
much easier. |

Source
Summary
It is helpful to be able
to refer quickly to information you have found for
a particular family and the sources of that information.
Keep a separate source summary of information found
for each family tree line. |
