Note: The terms used in columns 2 and 3 are the same as the topic headings used in this outline and in the Locality section of the Family History Library Catalog. Also, records containing previous research - genealogy, biography, history, periodicals, and societies - could provide information for nearly all research goals, but these have not been listed unless they are especially helpful.<br /><br />
