+==Compiled Genealogies==
+The term compiled genealogy is used in this Wiki article to describe a variety of records containing family information previously gathered by other researchers, societies, or archives. These records can include pedigree charts, compiled data on families, correspondence, ancestor lists, research exchange files, record abstracts, and collections of original or copied documents. These can be excellent sources of information that can save you valuable time. Because they are secondary sources of information, however, they must be carefully evaluated for accuracy.

+===FamilySearch Catalog===
+Many family histories can be found on the FamilySearch Catalog by performing a '''surname search''':
-Research use: Provide the results of previous research such as pedigree lineage information and may lead to the original sources of documentation.  Often provide information from record types, areas, and time periods where we have not yet been able to acquire the original records.
+*Go to the [https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog '''FamilySearch Catalog''']
+*Click on the '''Surname''' link
+*Type in the search field the '''last name''' of the family that you are researching
-Record type: Compiled genealogies, organized collections of lineage data, family histories, pedigrees, family and community genealogies, whether manuscript or published.
+OR to filter by '''location and surname''':
-Time period: Varies.
+*Go to the [https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog '''FamilySearch Catalog''']
+*Click on the '''Keyword''' link
+*Type in the search field the '''country of residence and last name''' of the family that you are researching
+==Oral Genealogies==
+Oral genealogies are spoken lineages that are common in certain parts of the world. Oral Genealogies can be especially useful in localities where few if any written records exist and in some cultures are the main genealogical tool for researchers.
+*For more background information, see [[Oral Genealogies|'''Oral Genealogies'''.]]
-Contents: Names of individuals; dates and places of birth, marriage, and death; names of parents and children.  Many include histories and illustrations of ancestors and ancestral homes.  Community genealogies list families of a specific place.  May provide source citations or copies of documents.  Many are indexed.
+There are not many oral genealogies online for COUNTRY, and therefore, interviewing likely family members of the deceased individuals may be more productive than searching for oral genealogies online.
+*For more information on how to do this see [[Creating Oral Histories|'''Creating Oral Histories''']].
+[[Category:COUNTRY]]
-Location: Varies; public and private libraries, archives, and other repositories.
-Accessibility: May be difficult to find.  Many in archives are not cataloged.  Some can be acquired through interlibrary loan, through local research agents, through filming by other libraries, or by purchase.<ref name="profile">The Family History Department of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, “Family History Record Profile: Armenia,” Word document, private files of the FamilySearch Content Strategy Team, 1990-1999.</ref>
