== How Do I Search the Collection? ==
{{DFNL_List | page = [[United States, War Relocation Authority Centers, Final Accountability Rosters Digital Folder Number List]] }}
 
== How Do I Search This Collection? ==
To begin your search you will need to know:
Before searching this collection, it is helpful to know:
*The full name of your ancestor
*The full name of your ancestor
*The approximate age of your ancestor
*The approximate age of your ancestor
*The place of birth or death
*The place of birth or death
 
=== Search the Index ===
 
{{Search Collection Link | CID=CID2729264 }}
'''Search by Name by visiting the [https://familysearch.org/search/collection/2729264?collectionNameFilter=false Collection Page]:'''<br>
=== View the Images ===

This search will return a list of possible matches. Compare the information about the individuals in the list to what you already know about your ancestors to determine if this is the correct family or person.  
=== How Do I Analyze the Results? ===
You may need to look at the information on several individuals comparing the information about them to your ancestors to make this determination.
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]].
 
Keep in mind:
*There may be more than one person in the records with the same name.
*You may not be sure of your own ancestor’s name.
*Your ancestor may have used different names, or variations of their name, throughout their life.
*If your ancestor used an alias or a nickname, be sure to check for those alternate names.
*Even though these indexes are very accurate they may still contain inaccuracies, such as altered spellings, and misinterpretations.
 
For tips about searching on-line collections see the on-line article [[FamilySearch Search Tips and Tricks]].
