Well, the title, pretty much says it all. Where do I start, for a genealogy search. My fathers family, is a bit of a mystery to me. I only know as far back as, my great-grandparents, names, and where they were from. Any help, would be greatly appreciated. Being African American, makes it kinda harder, due to the fact, of slavery, missing or no birth certificate, etc, etc…. Thanks.

How do you trace your roots (genealogy) without spending a lot of money?

I know I can always just ask my older family members, but I don’t think they will have the old Birth Certificates to prove it!

how does it work? where do I start? what if my family is not from the US?
WOW! Thanks everyone for all that great info. My family is Cuban but most of my great grandparents are from Spain. Perhaps I should try ancestry.com it seems like a put together site
