Genealogy is a blast from your past and a great hobby!

Genealogy is the study of peoples family history and the tracing of their lineage back through the mists of time and the people who practice this pastime either for a fun hobby or for financial gain are all called genealogists.
The first place to start if you want to trace your roots and ancestors back through the ages is to start locally with the older generation of your family and interview them and ask as many questions as you possibly can then you can start to spread out your search try your local records office for some good leads if your family have lived in the same area for a long time.
There may be relatives still back in your distant country of origin and a few letters or phone calls would probably get you some good leads.
When doing it for fun the amateur genealogist usually takes a long time, sometimes even years to amass all the leads, but that usually does not prove to be a barrier and can also part of the fun side of looking up you or your spouses ancestral family trees.
But if you don't want spend years searching, there is a way to reduce your time and if you are in a hurry to assemble that family tree then the answer is find yourself a top class Government records look up site, it should be your number one priority because it will save you huge amounts of time and provide you with more than enough information to complete your task.
These are the top three sites I recommend ....

1. Government-records .com .. "My number one choice!"
2. Public Records Pro. .. "Used to be the number one choice".
3. Government registry on line. .. "My third choice".
