Dear Patricia Lopez-Hopkinson,

We appreciate your interest in your ancestors.

1-If you have computer internet access we suggest that you start by going the internet address below. Just copy and paste it into your internet search box and click on the arrow on the right of the box. It will bring up an article on “How to start your Family History”. At the bottom of the article there are some links (The words in blue). Click on the links and they will take you to other places that will be of help to you. For instance, Free downloads for Family Group Record Forms and Pedigree Charts to help you to keep track of your ancestors as you find them. Also a free computer program called Personal Ancestral File that will help you keep the results of your research finds on the computer and How to find a Family History Center in your area where volunteers will help you to learn to do your research.
