Public Records for Ancestry Research

Though some people can sit down with their relatives and go over their family histories, not everyone is as lucky. If you have one or more grandparents who suffer from Alzheimer’s Disease or dementia, getting them to recognize you and have a conversation is difficult. Trying to get that person to talk about their parents and relatives is almost impossible. You do not need to talk to your relatives or have permission from your family members to do ancestry research though. Ourpublicrecords can help you find public records to trace your roots.

How to Find Ancestry Records Online

An easy way to learn a little more about your family is with a search of your last name. You’ll often find ancestry sites that can tell you where that name originated and some of the people who have the same name. It’s also helpful to use a site that offers public records too such as BeenVerified, which is our number one choice. Truthfinder and other sites can help too. Instead of sending you on a wild goose chase from one name to the next, these sites let you search for information on one person at a time. You can do as much research as you need before moving to the next name on your list.

There are many public records that you can use for ancestry research such as census reports. Have you always heard that your grandparents lived in New York City for years before moving to another city? You can spend hours looking for those names and still not find them because they never lived in NYC. With census reports, you can search for names and view both the address where that individual lived as well as anyone else who lived there. Census reports often list the ages and occupations of each resident at a specific address too. Other helpful records can include:

Marriage and divorce certificates
Birth and death records
Military service records
Property records
Court records

Even if you think that every member of your family lived a life free of crime, don’t forget to look at court records. These records can include lawsuits that relatives were a part of and land disputes that occurred in the past. You can use those records to see if there is land still owned by your family in other states.
