Over 20 years have passed since this material was first compiled. In that time much has changed in the field of family history and genealogical research, the computer and Internet to name two, and a few things have remained the same, such as the need to organize the papers which accumulate in the course of researching family history.
This booklet has been prepared for those who want to know what to do with their research notes and documents other than pile them in a box. It is not meant to tell how to do research or analyze the materials gathered. Those who desire this type of aid will find plenty of books in their area of interest.
