This table can help you decide which records to search in [[Manitoba|Manitoba]]. It is most helpful for post-1800 research. | |||
1. In column 1 find the goal you selected. | |||
2. In column 2 find the types of records most likely to have the information you need. | |||
3. In column 3 find additional record types that may be useful. | |||
4. Then look for the record type you need in the Locality Search of the Family History Library Catalog. | |||
Note: Records of previous research (genealogy, biography, history, periodicals, and societies) are useful for most goals, but are not listed unless they are ''especially'' helpful. | |||
