== '''Requesting Additional Information from Your Family'''  ==


As you learn about your family, you may want to share the information you find with you relatives (see [[Use the Information#Share the Information|Step 5]].) This may also be a good opportunity to request additional information from them. If your first requests were only for basic information about a few relatives, more information may be available. Your new information may jog memories of family members who may provide more clues. Also they may have recently found the information you were seeking.

Family members who were reluctant to share information earlier may have changed their minds, or may be intrigued by the information you have found. Your information may convince them of your seriousness and they may pay more attention to your requests.
