Great comprehensive article
I loved the fact that there was enough info under each category to be really useful and I also liked the links to other places like the BYU TV show Ancestors in the Learning Center and the reminder about Cyndi's List.

Good Outline for Beginning
I have been tasked with presenting this topic at a Stake Family History Fair. Given that I need to get started myself, this is an excellent resource for beginning. Check the links, as some go to sites that have not been updated or in service for several years.
