Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The first step is to talk with your grandparents and their siblings about your lineage. Visit cemeteries that you know have interred some of your ancestors and extract what information you can from their tombstones.

The best genealogical repository known on earth today is maintained by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon). If you know a Mormon, ask to be taken to one of the Family Centers of the stake to which he or she belongs. There, you can have at your fingertips tons of information pertaining to your surname.

The Family Center assistants can probably supply you with some family sheets to begin filling out and that would be a great help to you.

Genealogy is vastly important today as it was prophesied by the Prophet Elijah when "he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse" (Malachi 4: 6).

Good luck with your quest. Be persistent.
