Genealogists use a variety of methods and genealogical sources to conduct their research, including oral interviews, historical records (such as immigration records from Ellis Island), obituaries, census records, naturalization records, probate records, military records, birth certificates, death certificates, marriage certificates, church records of marriages and baptisms, and genetic testing. – Gale.com
We have gathered, sorted, and preserved as many traditional sources as possible. Because our interests are broad, we offer a selection of historical resources that help put our stories in a historical context.
