The Wiki has been created as a repository for reference information and research advice that has previously been stored within threads in the forums. This has had the effect of splitting the site into definitive '''Reference''' and '''Forum''' sections.
 
 
 
We want this to be a safe, enjoyable and friendly environment for all of our members. We don’t pre-screen material contributed to the site and are reliant on our members to point out anything that doesn’t conform to the [[Terms and Conditions]].

The '''County Records Office''' is the place where you will find your primary evidence - a myriad of documents which will be useful in your research. This '''[[Records Office Guide]]''' will explain what is likely to be found there and how it is going to be useful.
 
 
 
To be 99% sure that you are researching the correct people, you are going to have to get Birth, Marriage and/or Death '''Certificates'''. These pages will help you find out '''[[All About Certificates]]''' and how to go about obtaining them.
 
 
 
Alongside the personal details of your families, one of the most useful sets of documents for you will be the '''Census Returns'''. The '''[[Census Search]] Guide''' will give you more information on using these valuable sources of evidence for your research.

These days, the advent of the Internet and digital resources has enabled family historians to carry out much of their initial research online. The '''[[Online Research]]''' pages give an outline of the main resources available and "Hints and Tips" based on how some of the members have carried out their own research online.
 
 
 
The '''[[World Index Page]]''' is a collection of hundreds of hyperlinks to websites which the members of the Family Tree Forum have found useful. They are categorised by '''Country''' and then by '''County'''. The recommendations range from official County Council websites to small privately run village sites which give you a flavour of the area where your ancestors lived.
 
 
 
One of the most exciting and enjoyable aids to genealogical research is making contact with others researching the same family as you. The '''[[Surname Directory]]''' is a selection of the surnames being researched by the members of  the Family Tree Forum.
