Begin With Yourself
Always start with the person you know the most about - yourself!
You may not think that writing down things about yourself is that exciting, but you are the starting link back to your ancestors. Each piece of information may lead you to another. Fill in the family record and pedigree charts with the information you know ... your birth date, birthplace, hospital born in, when you got married, attended college, which college, high school or grammar school and its location, etc. Do the same thing for your parents, your grandparents and all the other relatives you know about.
