It is often necessary to search several censuses to find and prove relationships.
=== Step 1. Search for your ancestor in the1850 and 1860U.S. Census ===


 * Establish the parents and children of this family in the earliest censuses where they can be found.
 * Always look at the original record, not just the index or transcript.

Step 2. Search for your ancestor in the 1880U.S. Census.

 * Look for married children with a parent living with them by searchng for the parent's name.

''Tip: Parents are often found in the census records living with their married children. It is a good way to substantiate relationships and find additional family members.''

Step 3: Add new information to Family Tree.

 * Add any newly found family members to the Family Tree.
 * Be sure and check for any possible duplicates found in the Family Tree.
 * Prepare temple work by clicking on green arrows found in the Tree and follow the directions on the page.
