Bonus Strategy! Ancestry.com

This was not apart of my original strategies but it's too important to wait.

FamilySearch has made it so you can have free access to Ancestry.com, here is how you do it-

1. Sign into FamilySearch 
2. Click "Get Help" in the upper right hand corner of the screen
3. Click "Help Center" from the drop down menu
4. Under "Select a Help Topic" click "Partners"
5. Open the "Our Partners" menu
6. Click the Ancestry link
7. Click the red button that says Create Your Free Ancestry Account
8. Click the red button again (on the new screen that comes up)
9. Follow the steps to create your account! 

You have free access to the millions of records on Ancestry. If at any point ancestry asks you for money go to the help center for either Ancestry or FamilySearch.
