How Can I Research my Catholic Genealogy?

Catholic Genealogy

Have you been trying to locate your Catholic ancestors? Are you frustrated with what you are finding? Have you hit a brick wall, so to speak?

Never fear, there is a wealth of information out there for your Catholic genealogical research. First, try an Internet search for "Catholic Genealogy" and see what pops up.

One site in general should lead you to a ton of information. Here is a list of some of the types of records you may find in your Catholic genealogy search:

You may find information on the seven Sacraments of the Roman Catholic Church. The Roman Catholic Church believes the seven Sacraments are a sign of communication between God and man. You may find records of sacraments on baptism, reconciliation, first communion, confirmation, marriage, holy orders, and anointing the sick. You may also be able to request information on these records if you know the name of the city, the state and the church in which your relative lived and attended.

This is just a starting point; you should find even more information throughout your search.
