Feeling organized with all that research you have done? If you are truly organized you should be able to answer "yes" to all of these questions. If you aren't truly organized, you may need to improve your organizational skills before continuing your ancestry search:

1. Do you know what information you have for each ancestor?

2. Do you know what information you are missing for each ancestor?

3. Can you find or name the resources you have used?

4. Can you tell every name of all the books you have used for your research?

5. Can you name whom you have contacted regarding your research?

6. Can you actually find the above pieces of information for answering these questions in a very short amount of time?

If you answered no, you may want to research some organizational strategies to keep your papers in order. You should be able to find the answers to these questions quickly and orderly.
