The third step in finding your Native American roots is to visit the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) located in your region. These offices contain in most instances the national census records dating from the early 1800’s to the late 1900’s.

TAKING THE SECOND STEP 

The second step involves using the information you collected in Step #1, and begin to diagram your family tree if you don’t already have a diagram of it.

The first step to learning about your Black Red Roots is always to check your own personal resources to determine what is available to you before venturing out to other outside resources. What this statement means is that there is an enormous wealth of information within your own family.
