=== How Do I Analyze the Results? ===
Compare each result from your search with what you know to determine if there is a match. This may require viewing multiple records or images. Keep track of your research in a [[Use_Appropriate_Forms#Prepare_a_Research_Log |research log]].
== What Do I Do Next? ==
=== I Found the Person I Was Looking For, What Now? ===
*Add any new information to your records 
*Make sure to fully transcribe and cite the record entry for future reference                 
*Use the information to find more. For instance, use the age listed in the record to estimate a year of birth, if that is yet undetermined
*Compile information for every person who has the same surname as your ancestor; this is especially helpful in rural areas or if the surname is unusual
*Use the residence and names of the parents to locate [https://familysearch.org/search/collection/1928593 church] records
*Continue to search the records to identify children, siblings, parents, and other relatives in the same county or nearby. This can help you identify other generations of your family or even the second marriage of a parent
=== I Can’t Find The Person I’m Looking For, What Now? ===
*Check for variant spellings of the names
* Portugal’s emigration rate is one of the highest in the world.  Check [[Portugal Emigration and Immigration]] for more information
*Look for an index. There are often indexes at the beginning of each volume. In addition, local genealogical and historical societies often have indexes to local records
*Search the records of nearby localities (or military unties, counties, parishes, etc.)
