I am really interested in learning about my family history, and I interviewed my Grandfather and learned a little bit about his life. But I am confused about using censuses to do research. On familysearch.com I found a 1940 census record and it shows my great grandfather's info- the head of house, wife, etc. But people have been telling me to use that census information to trace down my family further. How do you use a census record to trace back further and gather information about great-great grandfathers and great-great-grandmothers, for example?
Thank you!
