Tracing one s lineage is in vogue
these days Nearly half the written
requests for assistance received by
America's libraries and historical so
cieties seek information about
someone’s ancestry.
Before you go running off to
search for your roots, be careful
or you could find yourself barking
up the wrong family tree Records,
if you are lucky enough to locate
them, often contain erroneous in­
formation, supplied by incompetent
or indifferent clerks or informants
who had decided to anglicize their
names or fib about their ages and
places of origin.
To make the search a little easier,
try following these tips:
• Begin w ith yourself. Fill out a
family chart to the best of your
memory.
Refer to letters, old
photographs, B'bles ;r.,thing the’
might provide clues.
• In te rv ie w relatives Much of
the information you seek may be
stored away in relatives' attics or
basements.
• C heck local records County
repositories of vital statistics should
have on file birth and marriage
certificates, land and cemetery re
cords Also, town libraries usually
keep sections devoted to genealogy
and local history
• Tap
distant
resources
Among
the
best
genealogical
sources are the New England
Historic Genealogical Society (101
Newbury
S t.,
Boston,
Mass
02,161; the National Genealogical
Society (4527 17th St., N., Arling
ton, Va 222071; the National Ar­
chives and Records Administration
(Washington. D C 204081; the Li­
brary of Congress (Washington,
D C 20540); the libraries of Los
Angeles. New York City, Chicago
(the Newberry Library) and Fort
Wayne, Ind ; and the library oper
ated by The Curch of Jesus Christ
of Latter day Saints (Mormons) in
Salt Lake City (LDS Genealogical
Library, 35 North West Temple St.,
Salt Lake City, Utah 84150), which
houses 170,000 books and 1 4 mil
lion reels of microfilm containing
records from around the world
Books for do it yourselfers in­
clude "Ancestry's Guide to Re
search: Case Studies in American
Genealogy" and "The Source: A
Guidebook of American Genoa
logy," both by Johni Cerny and
Arlene Eakle, and "Shaking Your
Family Tree" by Ralph Crandall
(Yankee Publishing, Inc.).
if you choose to hire a profes
sional genealogist to shake your
tree, keep in mind that they average
$20 an hour. A list of accredited
researchers
can
be
obtained
through the LDS Genealogical Li
brary or the Board of Certification

"When parents get involved with
their children’s education, it sets a
tone for success."
That’s a comment from just one
of the many parents across the
country who are participating in the
unique Teacher Parent partnership
program sponsored by the National
Education Association and the
Home and School Institute
The
project, which has already reached
the families of 12,000 students na
tionwide. will be expanded to sites
in at least 10 additional states this
till
The NEA Teacher Parent Partner­
ship protect aims to strengthen ties
between home and school and ac­
tively draw parents into their chil­
dren's learning. The project was de­
signed for the contemporary Amen
can family which may have a work­
ing mother or a single parent as its
head.
"Most parents want to get invol­
ved in their children's education,
but they may not be sure how to do
it," says NEA President Mary Hat-
wood Futrell. "Thet's why we took
on this project. We wanted to give
parents some practical suggestions
to help make what their children are
learning in school relevant to every
day life.”
