What kind of information is needed to start a project?
Start with the basics
Start with your full name, and your parents' full names and write down as much as you know- date of birth, place of birth. If your parents are no longer living, write down the date and place of death. Note any cities where you or your parents lived.
If you have that information for any of your grandparents, write it down also.
Now start your tree- it doesn't have to be fancy. You can use an online service, an app, or a simple paper form. Here's a link to a site where you can download free forms.
