First, of course, is to ask as many relatives as you can, their stories and stories passed down to them!.

Next, join an email group of that surname!. www!.rootsweb!.com has a great one!.

Next, find a bulletin board that discusses your surname such as www!.genforum!.com

If you live in the area that your relative lived in, visit the genealogical society or historical society!. They may have stories on your relatives!.

use google to search for stories on your relatives!. put in the state, county and surname of your relative and follow the links!. You might find their biographies in old books online!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
