== How Do I Search This Collection? ==
== How Do I Search This Collection? ==
'''To search the collection by image:'''
Before searching this collection, it is helpful to know:
# Select "Browse through images" on the initial collection page
*Name of the person
# Select the appropriate "Record Type" category which takes you to the images<br>
*Approximate date of the event
 
=== Search the Index ===
===I Found the Person I Was Looking For, What Now?===                          
{{HR No IDX}}
*Use the age in the citizen to find an approximate birth year to begin your search in church or civil records                           
=== View the Images ===
*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/Italy_Vital_Records_Index vital records indexes] 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

*[[Italy Church Records|Church Records]] often were kept years before government records were required and are a good source for finding ancestors before 1900
=== 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]].
===I Can't Find the Person I'm Looking For, What Now?===                              
== What Do I Do Next? ==
*Switch to a different record collection. Depending on the time period, either Civil Registration records or Church Records may be more useful                                 
=== I Found the Person I Was Looking For, What Now? ===
*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                         
*Add any new information to your records
*Keep in mind that there may be more than one person in the records with the same name                         
*If available, check the image for additional information
*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                         
*Analyze the entry to see if it provides additional clues to find other records of the person or their family
*Remember that sometimes individuals went by [http://usgenweb.org/research/nicknames.html nicknames] or alternated between using first and middle names. Try searching for [http://genealogy.about.com/od/first_names/fl/nickname-given-name-equivalents.htm these names] as well                       
*Record entries for other people with the same surname to identify possible relationships
*Search the indexes and records of [[Italy Societies|local genealogical societies]]
*Check civil registration to see if there is additional information recorded there
*Earlier records may not contain as much information as the records created after the late 1800
=== I Can’t Find the Person I’m Looking For, What Now? ===
*There is also some variation in the information given from one record to another
*Try searching by surname only
