Hiya,
I've managed to search most of my family back to the early 1800's but anything further than that is confusing to me. I have always had censuses and basic sources to lead the way.
With a lot of people I have also been using GENUKI to search for Birth/Baptism/Marriage/Burial entrys.
Is this how I search for people for now on? Can anyone give me any tips on searching pre 1841 if you don't have a lot of info??
