== How Do I Search the Collection? ==
== How Do I Search the Collection? ==
It is helpful to know:
*Your ancestor's name
*Residence
*Age or birthdate
*Names of family members
Fill in the requested information in the initial search page. This search will return a list of possible matches. Compare the information in the list to what you already know about your ancestor to determine if it is the correct family or person. You may need to compare several persons in the list before you find your ancestor.


'''To search the collection by image:''' <br> ⇒ Select "Browse through images" on the initial collection page <br> ⇒ Select the appropriate "Name Range" which takes you to the images.<br>  
'''To search the collection by image:''' <br> ⇒ Select "Browse through images" on the initial collection page <br> ⇒ Select the appropriate "Name Range" which takes you to the images.<br>  
== What Do I Do Next? ==
Whenever possible, view the original records to verify the information and to find additional information that might not be reported. These pieces of information can lead you to additional records and family members.
=== I Found Who I was Looking for, What Now? ===
*Use the age in the record to find an approximate birth year, which will help you find their other records.
*Use the information to find your ancestors in Censuses. These can help you find additional family members.
*Repeat this process with additional family members found to find more generations of the family.
=== I Can’t Find Who I’m Looking for, What Now? ===


Look at each image comparing the information with what you already know about your ancestors to determine if the image relates to them. You may need to look at several images and compare the information about the individuals listed in those images to your ancestors to make this determination.  
*Try viewing the original record to see if there were errors in the transcription of the name, age, residence, etc.


'''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, age, and family relationships. Remember that there may be more than one person in the records with the same name as your ancestor and that your ancestor may have used nicknames or different names at different times.  
*If you cannot locate your ancestor in the locality in which you believe they lived, then try searching records of a nearby locality in an area search.
 
*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. *Remember that sometimes individuals went by [http://usgenweb.org/research/nicknames.shtml 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.

== Tips to Keep in Mind ==
*There may be more than one person in the records with the same name.
*You may not be sure of your own ancestor’s name.
*Your ancestor may have used different names or variations of their name throughout their life (for example: they may have gone by their middle name).
*It may be easiest to find records if you already know what village or town your ancestor lived in at the time.
