Interviewing Family Members● Make appointment
● Send a list of questions ahead of time – not too many.
You will find a list of possible questions to ask on p.43-44 in maroon Members Guide – Decide on other questions as you find out what holes in your tree need to be filled.
● Ask permission to record the conversation so you will have a record of any information or stories they give you.
● You might find that some people would rather answer questions one or two at time in writing.
● Write a thank you note after your visit.

CAUTION: DO NOT RELY ON SOMEONE ELSE’S FAMILY TREE
IF IT CONTAINS NO SOURCES! Verify every scrap of vital information, including relationships, even if there are sources. Examine available information in an
existing Family Tree to see if it makes sense.
