How to Observe Genealogy Day

Celebrate the day by starting to piece together your personal history! Perhaps you’ll be able to gather enough information to make a pedigree chart. Some ideas to get you moving on your genealogical research include:

Have conversations with your older relatives—such as parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents—and ask about family history and what is known of your ancestors. Make sure to take notes. Inquire if there are genealogical records, photo albums, letters, postcards, or a family bible you could look through, or if there is an already-compiled genealogical account of your family.
Explore public records in libraries, courthouses, city halls, historical societies, and Family History Centers, as well as online through newspaper databases and genealogy websites, such as Ancestry.
Pick up some genealogy books.
Subscribe to Family Tree magazine and explore their website for genealogical information.
Join a genealogical society.
If you are one of the older members of your family, have conversations with the younger generations about your family’s genealogy, and work with them to research your family history.
