Post your information including the family histories you are looking for on our history discussion forum. Family historians get together at the forum to discuss research methods and exchange material. You may get lucky and find missing family member or family history artifact. You don’t have much to lose from posting in many places and seeing what you can turn up but be careful what you post. It’s best not to post your home address or home phone online on open forums. If you want you can exchange further details using the secure arcalife message centre.
The great thing about family history is that there is something for all levels. If you have plenty of time so much the better but if you don’t, you can still achieve a lot by being organized and focused in your family history research. One way to progress if you have limited time is to create a family history plan to motivate you. It’s really just your commitment to yourself that you will try and achieve certain things by a certain date.
