WHAT IS GENEALOGY?

Genealogy is the study of family lineage and family history.  So start your research here with Quintin Publications.

Genealogy books are a very popular way to start your research in to family lineage and family history. Quintin Publications are even put on CDs that can be read using your computer to do your Genealogy research for family lineage and family history. These electronic books are "text searchable", meaning, if you are looking for "Steven Smith" within a book it would be as simple as typing that into the search bar during your research for family history or family lineage.

There are also many genealogy clubs and libraries you may visit or join to help you with researching family history or family lineage.

Another popular way to start your genealogy research is to ask your relatives about your family lineage or family history. They may be able to fill some gaps that a genealogy book may have overlooked.  Obtaining BIRTH, MARRIAGE AND DEATH CERTIFICATES is another great way to start looking into your genealogy today.

You can work your way backwards though your family history or family lineage this way. Every 10 years since 1801 a census has been taken in the United States that gives you more options to help with family history or family lineage.

In addition to the ways described above there are still more records to use with genealogy searches for family lineage or family history. There are Parrish (church) records that will contain more marriages, deaths and birth records.  You can employ the use of wills which will usually contain names of the family and relationships to the deceased as well as what was left to whom.  Many newspapers are now available to search through also. This will give you access to the Obituaries and weddings, sometimes in great detail. 

Historically, genealogy was a very important field, because family connections between nobility were crucial to the idea of inheritance and the passing down of titles and rulership. In many societies, for example, if a king had no direct heir, the next closest heir would have to be found.

Genealogy may also play an important role in helping to restore families that have been torn apart by some larger circumstance.
