To begin your search it is helpful to know:  
== How Do I Search This Collection? ==
 
Before searching this collection, it is helpful to know:
*Your Ancestor’s name  
*Name of the person
*Other identifying information such as their residence, birth date, names of other family members and relationships.
*The name of a parent or date of the event
 
=== Search the Index ===
=== Search the Collection  ===
{{Search Collection Link | CID=CID2517343 }}
 
=== How Do I Analyze the Results? ===
To search the collection by name fill in your ancestor’s name in the initial search page. This search will return a list of possible matches. Compare the information about those in the list to what you already know about your own ancestors to determine if this is the correct family or person.
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]].
 
== What Do I Do Next?==
If you did not find the person you were looking for, you may need to search the collection by image. <br> ⇒Select "Browse through images" on the initial collection page <br> ⇒ Select the 'Volume' category which takes you to the images.<br>
=== I Found the Person I Was Looking For, What Now? ===
 
*Add any new information to your records
Look at each image comparing the information with what you already know about your ancestors to determine if the image relates to them. You may need to look at several images and compare the information about the individuals listed in those images to your ancestors to make this determination.  
*If available, check the image for additional information
 
*Analyze the entry to see if it provides additional clues to find other records of the person or their family
With either search keep in mind:
*[[Utah Church Records]] were kept years before counties began keeping records. They are a good source for finding ancestors before 1900
 
=== I Can’t Find the Person I’m Looking For, What Now? ===
*There may be more than one person in the records with the same name.
*Try searching by surname only
*You may not be sure of your own ancestor’s name.
*The person may be recorded with an abbreviated or variant form of their name
*Your ancestor may have used different names or variations of their name throughout their life.
*Remember that spelling was generally not standardized until the early part of the 20th century
 
*Check the info box above for additional FamilySearch websites and related websites that may assist you in finding similar records
