- Consider
using one of the many software programs for capturing and organising
your genealogy information. (When your searching is well underway
you may well amass a substantial amount of information.) These
programs are often available for free with PC Magazines. Furthermore,
http://www.familysearch.org has free software downloads available.
-
Remember to keep interested family members informed of your progress. You never know what else
they may remember based on your findings.
- Look at alternative ways of
gaining information (e.g. graveyards, local libraries, school records
etc)
- Buy a book on the subject -
most book stores are positively brimming with books on tracing your
ancestors
- Join your local or national
genealogical group or society - e.g. Glasgow and West of Scotland
Family History Society
- Pay someone else to trace your
family tree - The Association of Scottish Genealogists and Record
Agents (ASGRA) http://www.asgra.co.uk holds a list of record agents
