→The very first steps
*Search the archives of the India List. You may find that someone else has already researched the family tree you are interested in. Read how to do this, and more about the India List, in the Fibiwiki link [[Mailing lists]]. When you have some identifying details of a person such as name, date and place(presidency), you might wish to join the India List and send an email to the list, asking whether anyone has any knowledge of the family.
*Consider joining your local genealogy society as most large societies , in addition to other services, provide members free online access in their libraries to commercial sites such as findmypast and Ancestry. This is especially relevant as the church records at the British Library are now digitised and available through findmypast. Some libraries may also offer free access to websites such as findmypast and Ancestry, see [[Miscellaneous tips]].
