=== Introduction === | === Introduction === | ||
A biography is an oral or written history of a person's life. In a written biography you may find the individual's birth, marriage, and death information as well as the names of their parents, children, or other family members. Additionally information may be found to narrow the search for homestead records and immigration records such as passenger lists. From the dates in the biography, it can be determined which census to peruse for additional information. Use the information contained in a biography carefully because there may be inaccuracies.<br> | A biography is an oral or written history of a person's life.
