| Look at the images one by one comparing the information with what you already know about your ancestors to determine which one is your ancestor. You may need to compare the information about more than one person to make this determination.

|
| |
| ==== Using the Information ====

| When you have located your ancestor’s record, carefully evaluate each piece of information given. Save a copy of the image or transcribe the information. These pieces of information may give you new biographical details such as a title, an occupation, or land ownership. Add this new information to your records of each family. You should also look for leads to other records about your ancestors.
| |
|
| |
| ==== Tips to Keep in Mind ====

| |
| *Look for variant spellings of the names.
| |
| *Titles may be clues to property ownership, occupations, rank or status within the community.
| |
| *Make a list of individuals with the same surname.
| |
| *Search the indexes and records of nearbylocalities.
