2) TYPES OF RECORDS-Census, Birth, Marriage, Death, Military, Land, and many more
3) WHERE TO FIND INFORMATION: Genealogy Websites such as Ancestry.com, Familysearch, Rootsweb, Social Security Death Index, Google search or other website.
4) PLACES TO SEARCH-Public Library (Most have ancestry.com for free), Latter Day Saints Family History Center, Local History Center, Local Courthouse, Vital Records office or holder of the record you are searching for, your home computer
