Be sure to plan your work thoroughly before embarking upon a genealogy research project. Start by interviewing your family members about your Aboriginal ancestry.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Once you\u2019ve gathered all the necessary information from your family members, it\u2019s a good idea to prepare a family tree, which is an invaluable tool. Genealogical societies and archives centres can provide you with family tree charts.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\u00a0Once you\u2019ve gathered as much information as possible from
your family members, you\u2019ll have to decide how you want to move forward with
your research project. If you live near a library or an archives centre, it\u2019s
best to start your genealogy research there. They have genealogists and
specialized researchers who will be able to help you with your research.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

If you\u2019re Internet-savvy, do your research online. But beware, as any information you find on the Internet should only be considered a starting point. Always check any data you find online against a church register or genealogical directory.<\/span><\/p>

    In 1994, the Government of Qu\u00e9bec created the office of the Directeur de l\u2019\u00e9tat civil<\/i>, which took over responsibility for parish records. Consequently, registers are now available on microfilm at all National Archives of Quebec branches. Check the\nblue pages of your telephone directory for the branch nearest you.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n\n<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
