Documenting the Lineage for Eligibility in DAR or SAR The FamilySearch.org collection includes hundreds of free databases for the United States containing vital records, census records, probate records, military records, and court records. Many of these databases are linked in this tutorial under Vital Records and Probate Records. It is usually best to search specific databases based on where and when your ancestors lived. Usually, the best way to find a record is to search using a first name, a last name, and a place of residence (county and state OR just a state). If you cannot locate a record by searching on a name and place of residence, the next strategy is to remove the place of residence and search using a first name, a last name, father’s first name, and mother’s first name. Next, try searching on a first name, a last name, wife’s first name, and wife’s maiden name. If your ancestor’s name is common, each of the above strategies can result in a large number of returns.

Google Power Search: How to Search by a Date Range and Why You Might Want To | Eastman's Online Genealogy Newsletter There’s a lot more you can do with Google than just searching the entire Internet. For instance, you can search for web pages added to Google’s indexes within a range of dates.

For instance, I have an elusive “brickwall ancestor” that I have been trying to identify for years: Washington Harvey Eastman. Since I have already searched for him before, I have already seen all the “hits” that have been available for some time. Method #1: Search from the main Google search page Go to and enter the words or phrase that you wish to search for. “Washington Harvey Eastman” The quotes indicate that I want to search for those exact words in that exact order. When the results appear, look slightly above the results and click on “Search Tools.” Next, look just above the first “hit” and notice the words “Any time.” Method #2: Use Google’s Advanced Search Page Like this:
