Offers an introduction to the tools and processes of researching your past. This title teaches you how to get the most information from living relatives, how to negotiate the vast quantities of census data with ease, and the best way to store, catalogue and present the information you discover.
"Family History for Beginners" by Karen Foy is the sort of book that will set you off on a journey of discovery that could quite literally change your life and the history of who you are.

Dabbling in family history is a pastime anyone of any age can enjoy but, although it is guaranteed to get you hooked once you start, the massive proliferation of websites, magazines and books in recent years can baffle the would-be genealogist to a standstill. This is an ideal introduction to the tools and processes of researching your past. It will teach you how to get the most information from living relatives, how to negotiate the vast quantities of census, data with ease, and the best way to store, catalogue and present the information you discover.

"Family History for Beginners" will also help you take your research to the next level, beyond the simple facts of birth, marriage and death, with chapters on occupation, emigration and military service.
