Genealogy (from Greek: γενεά, genea, "generation"; and λόγος, logos, "knowledge") is the study of families and the tracing of their lineages and history. Genealogists use oral traditions, historical records, genetic analysis, and other records to obtain information about a family and to demonstrate kinship and pedigrees of its members. The results are often displayed in charts or written as narratives.

Some scholars differentiate between genealogy and family history, limiting genealogy to an account of kinship, while using "family history" to denote the provision of additional details about lives and historical context.

Genealogy site where I can search for a family-tree with two particular surnames?
Q. Is there a family tree/genealogy website that allows you to search for family tree's that have two or more particular surnames in them? thanks in advance.

A. I hope you mean a Smith married to a Jones, not a Smith whose fourth cousin once removed was a Jones. No site in the 500,000 will do that last one, although Google might find them if they were on the same (massive) FTM report masquerading as a web page. RWWC's search engine allows you to specify spouse's name - it can be given or surname. The LDS site allows you to look for marriage records. GenCircles has the spouse option too. GenForum's surname forums allow searches for the other name - in my example, you'd search the SMITH surname board for Jones, and vice versa. Ancestry's surname forums do to; or you could search for both surnames across all boards. Roots Web's mailing list archives recently upgraded, so you can search all the… [cont.]

What can i do with old genealogy records?
Q. My mom recently passed away and left 4 file drawers of research. I don't have a use for this information but would a Genealogy Society or something else use them?

A. There are 3 places I can think of that would be happy to take your Mom's research. 1. Your local LDS Center 2. Your local library if they have a genealogist 3. Your local genealogy society First I would ask Family members if any of them are doing research. If they are, then perhaps one of them would love to have it.

A. It requires research and Ted has given you some good websites. However, you probably won't be able to get it all on the web. Now, there are websites with family trees. They are not prepared and put on those websites by expert people who run the websites. They are subscriber submitted and mostly not documented or poorly documented. There are errors. You cannot take as absolute fact everything you see in them. You might in some cases see the different info on the same people from different subscribers. Then you wil see repeatedly the same info from different subscribers on the same people, BUT that doesn't mean it is accurate. A lot of people copy without verifying. Use the information as CLUES as to where to get the documentation. … [cont.]
