Yesterday’s tip was about clearly stating your genealogical research problem. Today’s tip is that once you’ve stated that problem determine all the sources that might answer that question, either directly or indirectly. Brainstorm. At this stage don’t think about how the records would be accessed, which ones are more reliable, etc.  That comes later. Just make a list of what records could answer your question–including ones you don’t normally use. Be creative with the types of materials that could help.
