Beginners First Step - Summary and Links

Take care of the two critical steps immediately to preserve your family history. This is a Summary section (plus links) for the article “Beginners First Step”.

This page is an article summary for the main article “Beginners First Step” that relates to those that are new to genealogy and the steps they should take when deciding if they want to become a family historian. This page provides condensed summaries of the step by step approach that would benefit their new undertaking. It also provides a listing of the links that are associated with the original article and provides a list of other links to Research Wiki articles that those "new to genealogy" might find relevant.

Editor’s Note: The table on this page will also be viewed in the original article. Contributors are requested to add links in the final section of this table in order to provide quick access to other articles not already listed here. Again, the theme relates to “New to Genealogy” and should provide the article link and a very short summary statement (~50 characters or less). Please make sure the linked articles are up-to-date and that internal links are all working properly as this could be the user’s first exposure to this Research Wiki.

Since a part of this page is transcluded to the original article, portions of this page can only be edited using wikitext (areas between the "noinclude" tags). The table itself can now be edited using the "rich editor" but if you prefer not to add the links yourself you can add the suggested link to the "talk" page and it will be transfered to the table.
