Internet FamilyFinder ßAfter you’ve gathered information from your parents and family, look for more information that has already been found by others ßFamily histories, genealogies, and family web sites may tell you more about your ancestors ßWherever you find information, verify its accuracy Copyright ©2000, Alan E. Mann

Internet FamilyFinder (or IFF) ßImagine a library with hundreds of thousands of books with family histories ßNow imagine there’s an index to all the books ßThis is Internet FamilyFinder, but the library is the Internet and the books are web pages. Copyright ©2000, Alan E. Mann

Internet Family Finder ßA free service from Genealogy.com ßSearches for your ancestor ßon web pages of their customers ßon CD-ROMs they produce ßon web pages on millions of computers worldwide ßLinks to searches on ßSocial Security files of Americans who’ve died ßPhone numbers and for living people Copyright ©2000, Alan E. Mann

Using Internet FamilyFinder ßTo use Internet Family Finder: ßgo to ßEnter the full name of an ancestor you’d like to find ßClick on Search ßInternet FamilyFinder gives you a list of pages containing that name ßclick on the links to see if the person shown is your ancestor Copyright ©2000, Alan E. Mann

ßEnter the address ßYou should see something like this: Enter the first and last name of the person you want to find more about For example, I enter Daniel Corley (as shown by red arrow), and click on search Copyright ©2000, Alan E. Mann

ßThe search results tell you 1. Where the web page is (Internet, user site, on CD) ß2. The title of the web page found ß3. The words on the web page around the name you searched for ßIf there’s more than twenty results, it has a “next page” option Let’s see what happens when you click on a link 1 2 3

ßWhen you click on a link, you’re transferred to the web page Internet FamilyFinder found. It could be anyone’s page, and could be located anywhere in the world In the Daniel Corley example, you’re taken to a web page of a Daniel Corley. This Daniel was born 1813 (see red arrow). His wife and ten children are listed here with their birth information. This is part of a family history on the Internet showing ten generations of this family. Copyright ©2000, Alan E. Mann

ßAfter you look at one link, press the Back arrow and check out other links until you’ve looked at all the promising leads ßIf you didn’t find any web pages (or not enough), try entering the last name only and search again ßIf you got too many links, try adding a middle name or initial ßNOTE that there are instructions to help you get more from the IFF (see red arrow at right) Copyright ©2000, Alan E. Mann

ßNear the bottom of your search results, you may see links in the “Found on” column that say CD followed by a number (see red arrow, below) ßThese refer to CD-ROMs sold by Genealogy.com, and they want you to buy the CDs to see the information. ßYou can visit the Family History Library in Salt Lake to see these CDs, or have a volunteer look them by contacting the CD Lookup List at Copyright ©2000, Alan E. Mann

Internet FamilyFinder ßNow you should search for your ancestors’ names on Internet Family Finder. ßThe web site has instructions and details on how to get more from this free service. ßGenealogy.com has many other services worth looking at. The End Copyright ©2000, Alan E. Mann Remember, start at
