Morris Cuomo: Start with yourself, and go back one generation at a time collecting birth, death and marriage information as well as parents names. The census can assist but it not considered a primary as it is well known! that many errors were made when the census was collected. The Indian Census might be of help, but you really need to know the tribe to be able to trace your ancestors.

Ivan Velazquez: The process is the same for any other genealogical research:1) Interview your living relatives.2) Examine your own documents and those of relatives that will allow it.3) Learn about genealogical research, history, and documentation in general, and that which may be specific to your ancestors.4) Organizing your data and developing a storage system. Software is available.5) Research one document at a time, one person at a time, one generation at a time.Resources specific to Native American ancestry will help in Steps 3 and 5.
