When we interview someone or obtain a document, artifact (item of clothing, tool, photograph, etc), or a copy of a record about our family, we should make a note of it. We should write the results we obtained and where the information came from on our “Results List.” [edit | edit source]

Results List[edit | edit source]

Example:

                                                                        RESULTS LIST
People I talked to, papers I read, or objects I looked at

                Baptismal record of my Grandfather Samuela Fakatou                               Yes. His LDS baptismal date

 



Where did I get the information or where is it located now?
