The term genealogy is used in this article and in the ''Family History Library Catalog'' to describe a variety of records containing family information gathered by individuals, other researchers, societies, or archives. These records may include pedigree charts, compiled information 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 compiled from other sources of information, they must be carefully evaluated for accuracy. | The term genealogy is used in this article and in the ''Family History Library Catalog'' to describe a variety of records containing family information gathered by individuals, other researchers, societies, or archives.
