 == How Do I Search the Collection?  ==
+Before searching this collection, it is helpful to know:
-Some record sets have indexes; these indexes were created at the end of the year. Copy errors could have been made in the index, so you want to find the actual record to verify the information is correct. Using the index is a helpful way to find the actual record.
+*Name of the person
+*Approximate date of the event
-'''When searching:'''<br> As you are searching it is helpful to know such information as your ancestor's given name and surname, some identifying information such as residence, an estimated birth, marriage, or death year, and family relationships such as a parent's name.

 === 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]].
