Information Request Form for Living Relatives (National Institute)

Information Request
You want to keep your information as accurate and as up-to-date as possible. You have become the family historian. Your relatives should expect to keep you updated every time an event occurs in their family.

Hopefully, you will get notices of births, marriages and deaths. But sometimes your family will forget to let you know.

So every time you communicate with family members, and periodically maybe with a Christmas card or through a family newsletter, always include this form. Ask not only about new births, marriages and deaths, but also about changes in addresses, separations and divorces.

Remember to also bring lots of copies of this form to family gatherings— family reunions, Christmas parties or someone’s birthday.

All this will keep your information active and up-to-date.
