=== I Found the Person I Was Looking For, What Now? ===
*Use the birth date or year to search for birth records
*Add any new information to your records
*Use the birth date along with relative’s names to find the family in census records
*If available, check the image for additional information
*Use the locality and relative’s names to locate church and land records
*Analyze the entry to see if it provides additional clues to find other records of the person or their family
*The name of the undertaker or mortuary could lead you to funeral and cemetery records, which often include the names and residences of other family members
*Record entries for other people with the same surname to identify possible relationships
*Compile the entries for every person who has the same surname; this is especially helpful in rural areas or if the surname is unusual
=== I Can’t Find the Person I’m Looking For, What Now? ===
*Continue to search the records to identify children, siblings, parents, and other relatives of the deceased who may have been buried in the same cemetery or nearby. This can help you identify other generations of your family. Repeat this process for each new generation you identify
*The person may be recorded with an abbreviated or variant form of their name
*When looking for a person who had a common name, look at all the entries for the name before deciding which is correct
*Try searching by surname only
=== I Can't Find the Person I'm Looking For, What Now? ===
*Remember that spelling was generally not standardized until the early part of the 20th century
*Look for variant spellings of the names. You should also look for nicknames and abbreviated names
*Search the indexes and records of nearby cemeteries
