family ancestry genealogy

Genealogy , How do you get started with tracing youre Family History?
Besides ancestry.com where do you begin to search
Weirdness, Actually my father is dead , he died suddenly at age 49 and was buried the day before my birthday . So you dont have to be old bro.
UK answer.
My suggestion to get you started would be for you to ask questions at home or your grandparents, make notes of names,dates , places, relationships, that kind of information . I have found the more unusual the name the easier the search , but I think all us amateur researchers will tell you the same.
I really like ancestry.co.uk /.com and have membership to them. There is one completely site that I use a lot and that’s www.familysearch.org, it’s excellent.
And finally you can always ask for help on Yahoo answers there are some excellent researchers, Wendy C, Ted Pack and Shirley T ? are not only helpful but they are very clued up on this subject, they are all on the USA leader board, so they must be doing a sterling job.
Hope this helps.
