FamilySearch provides Research Guidance for England (as also for other countries). Prioritized birth, marriage, and death sources are listed for three major time periods (1066 to 1537, 1538 to 1837, and 1837 to Present). A new form, a Strategic Research Log, applies these search strategies to a common research log format. It adds the prioritized sources, listed in small tables that can be expanded. The three complete logs, based on time periods, are available for downloading. The complete logs are also available for viewing HERE. The logs contain links that take a user directly to the Research Guidance page in FamilySearch. (Because of limitations on image size in FamilySearchWiki, only the first of such small tables is shown here.) Below in this article, a list gives the contents of the other tables, one list for each of the three time periods. In a word processor, such as Microsoft Word, you can add rows and expand them. The rows can then be sorted within each table by name, date, or whatever will help in the research process. (See Research Compass Description for a full discussion of using strategic logs to help organize all your research digitally.)
