watch the video "The Research Process"
1. gather - everything you already know about your genealogy
2. choose - a question you want to answer (a simple question with only 1 answer)
3. find - what you don't know (ask the person, look for a document)
4. evaluate - take the new info you found and decide if it answers your question; consider the source of your information
5. share - once you've found good information, share it with others online or in paper form
(get help) - help is in the center of the circle if this sounds hard
challenge: spend 5 minutes and get started!
