'''Resources available<br>'''The Family History Library has a large collection of records and books from the ''Hawaiian Islands''.<br>On the Internet, we can go to Familysearch.org and choose the Library tab and then Family History Library Catalog. We would then type in Hawaii to get records that are made on an Island Group-wide basis and print the items we are interested in. <br>We would then type in the ''name of the island'' where our ancestors were from to get a list of records made on that level. | |||
Next, we type in the ''name of the district ''where our ancestors came from to see if any records were made on that level and print out the lists we get, then click on the record types that interest us. <br><br>We can also '''use a Film/fiche number search '''and look at the descriptions of these microfilms, all of which contain information about Hawaii: '''1031511, 1031512, 1031513, 7194117, 1675576 Item 2, 1675265 item 4, 1308916, 1308917, 1308918, 1308919, and 1014417.''' | |||
