These records were oftentimes created to help civil authorities and for the benefits of its citizens. 
Most of the records listed in this collection are reliable to a point, depending on the knowledge of the person giving the information and the person that received it and recorded it. The most used records for genealogical research are the civil registration records after 1876 and the church records before that date. However, if those are not available, the population registers (census) and emigration records are also reliable and great records to search for data that will help find other family members and other records.

=== How Do I Analyze the Results? ===
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]].


== How to Use the Record  ==
== What Do I Do Next? ==
 
=== I Found the Person I Was Looking For, What Now? ===
==== SEARCHING THE COLLECTION  ====
*Add any new information to your records       
 
*Use the age to find an approximate birth year to begin your search in church or civil records         
'''To search this collection by image:''' <br> ⇒Select "Browse" link in the initial search page <br> ⇒Select "City or borough" category <br> ⇒Select "Item of interest" category which takes you to the images.<br>
*Continue to search the records to identify children, siblings, parents, and other relatives who may have moved, been recruited or lived nearby. This can help you identify other generations of your family. Repeat this process for each new generation you identify. Compile the entries for every person who has the same surname; this is especially helpful in rural areas or if the surname is unusual. This compiled list can help you identify possible relations that can be further verified by researching [https://familysearch.org/wiki/en/Germany_Vital_Records_Index_(FamilySearch_Historical_Records) vital records] in the country         
 
*When you have located your ancestor’s record, carefully evaluate each piece of information given. Save a copy of the image or transcribe the information. These pieces of information may give you new biographical details such as a title, an occupation, or land ownership. Add this new information to your records of each family. You should also look for leads to other records about your ancestors        
Search the collection by image comparing the information with what you already know about your ancestors to determine which one is your ancestor. You may need to compare the information about more than one person to make this determination.
*[[Germany Church Records|Church Records]] often were kept years before government records were required and are a good source for finding ancestors before 1900
 
===I Can't Find the Person I'm Looking For, What Now?===             
In order to find data in this collection, it will be necessary to know at least the name of the ancestor, the place of the event, and an approximate date.  
*Consult the [[Germany Record Finder]] to find other records
 
*Switch to a different record collection. Depending on the time period, either German Civil Registration records or German Church records may be more useful                 
Some records have indexes at the end of the volume. Frequently, these indexes are arranged by the given name of the individual and sometimes use the Latin form of the name. Those volumes without indexes need to be searched chronologically for the individuals sought. When you have located your ancestor’s record, carefully evaluate each piece of information about other people listed in the record. These pieces of information may give you new biographical details that can lead you to other records about your ancestors.
*While searching, it is helpful to know such information as the ancestor’s given name and surname, some identifying information such as residence and age, and family relationships. Remember that there may be more than one person in the records with the same name as an ancestor and that the ancestor may have used nicknames or different names at different times         
 
*Keep in mind that there may be more than one person in the records with the same name       
For example:
*Standard spelling of names typically did not exist during the periods our ancestors lived in. Try variations of your ancestor’s name while searching the index or browsing through images. Pay special attention to how the name should have been pronounced and try variations on the pronunciation         
 
*Search the indexes and records of [[Germany Societies|local genealogical societies]]
*Use the birth or baptism date and place to find the family in census records.
=== Research Helps ===
*Use the residence and names of the parents to locate civil and land records.  
The following articles will help you research your family in [[Germany Genealogy|Germany]].
*The father’s occupation can lead you to employment records, military records, or other types of records.
* [[Germany Research Tips and Strategies]]
*The parents' places of origin can tell you former residences and can help to establish a migration pattern for the family.
* [[Germany Record Finder]]
*Marriage date and place may help find a couple's children.
== Citing This Collection ==
*Burial place may also help you find a couple's migration pattern.
Citations help you keep track of places you have searched and sources you have found. Identifying your sources helps others find the records you used.
 
{{Collection citation}}
It is often helpful to extract the information on all children with the same parents. If the surname is unusual, you may want to compile baptism entries for every person of the same surname and sort them into families based on the names of the parents. Continue to search the baptism records to identify siblings, parents, and other relatives in the same or other generations who were born, married, and died in or near to the same place.
