| == How to Use the Record == | | === Search the Collection === |
|
| |
|
| Begin your search by finding your ancestors in the index. Use the locator information in the index (such as page, entry, or certificate number) to locate your ancestors in the birth, marriage, or death records.
| | To search the collection image by image select "Browse through images" on the initial collection page<br>⇒ Select the appropriate "Comune or Frazione" <br>⇒ Select the appropriate "Record Type and Year" which takes you to the images. |
|
| |
|
| Compare the information in the birth record to what you already know about your ancestors to determine if this is the correct person. You may need to compare the information of more than one person to make this determination. Be aware that as with any index, transcription errors may occur.
| | {{Tip|Don't overlook {{FHL|Italy, Salerno|keywords|disp}} items in the FamilySearch Library Catalog. For other libraries (local and national) or to gain access to items of interest, see [[Italy Archives and Libraries]].}} |
| | |
| When you have located your ancestor’s birth record, carefully evaluate each piece of information about them. These pieces of information may give you new biographical details that can lead you to other records about your ancestors.
| |
| | |
| '''For example:'''
| |
| | |
| *Use the birth date along with the place of birth to find the family in census records.
| |
| *Use the residence and names of the parents to locate church and land records.
| |
| *The father’s occupation can lead you to other types of records such as employment or military records.
| |
| *The parents' birth places can tell you former residences and can help to establish a migration pattern for the family.
| |
| *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 birth entries for every person of the same surname and sort them into families based on the names of the parents. Continue to search the birth records to identify siblings, parents, and other relatives in the same or other generations who were born in the same county or nearby.
| |
| | |
| '''Keep in mind:'''
| |
| | |
| *The information in birth records is usually reliable, but depends upon the reliability of the informant.
| |
| *Earlier records may not contain as much information as the records created after the late 1800s.
| |
| *There is also some variation in the information given from record to record.
