Free ways to search for relatives.?
I am interested in doing some family research and wanted to know what free resources may be available to help me. I know of websites like Ancestry.com but they charge for a membership. Would a library be of any help? Are there free websites available? Archives? If anyone out there has researched their family and found free resources to help them, I would appreciate knowing what you used. Thanks so much!
I would recommend the website new.familysearch.org because it is free. Also you could go to a family history center at a mormon church. they have people who are really interested in family history.

Your English Ancestry $15.4 Your English Ancestry: A Guide for North Americans was the first book to provide a logical research routine for family historians based in North America. Since the first edition of Your English Ancestry was published in 1993, genealogy has become even more popular, the Internet has become an important tool for many researchers, and there have been significant changes in local government and in the storage of major records in England. These changes are reflected in this new edition of Your English Ancestry. It contains additional detail on many records, a new chapter introducing early English research (before 1730), and a greatly expanded bibliography. For every type of record — civil registration, census, church records, probate, occupation, and local administration — there are clear explanations of availability and access. Each chapter concludes with a step-by-step summary |
