The popularity of Family History has increased over the past five years due to TV shows like
Genealogy Roadshow, Finding Your Roots, and Who Do You Think You Are? The ability to
access records online has opened up the one time hobby for genealogy enthusiasts to the
mainstream.
While this is not a comprehensive guide to all things genealogy, it is a roadmap to help you
on this journey of discovery, whether you are looking for your African Asian, European, or
Jewish ancestry. The Family History Toolkit guides you on how and where to begin, what
records are available both online and in repositories, what to do once you find the infor-
mation, how to share your story and of course DNA discoveries.
