Living Family

Don't get too caught up in all the old documents at the library that you forget your best resource: your own family. There are many ways to learn from and interact with your living family to further your genealogy research.

Conducting a Family Interview
Best way to learn from a relative is to sit down and talk to them. Make the most of your interview time by being prepared.

Create a Family Scrapbook
Don't leave your treasured photos and documents locked in a box. Create a lovely and visual tour of your family tree with a scrapbook.

Planning a Family Reunion
Having a big group of relatives in once place can be a dream come true for a genealogist, but planning a reunion is a big job.

Start a Family Newsletter
A regular family newsletter can be a great help in keeping your network of relatives at hand.
