Every month, I meet with an amazing group of Latinas whom I truly admire and care about deeply. Every gathering is meaningful and powerful, but some conversations carry a little extra magic—and last night was one of those.

The discussion inspired me to share this message with my genealogy community. It touched on a lesson that I am still learning myself: the importance of asking for help before we are running on empty.

Just as in life, genealogy is often at its best when we collaborate, share our knowledge, and support one another along the journey.

Organízate para tu viaje genealógico. Ya sea digital o con libreta, empieza con lo básico: tú, tus padres y abuelos. Haz preguntas a tus familiares para armar el rompecabezas de tu historia.

Starting your genealogy journey is simpler than you think. Begin with yourself, then your parents, grandparents, and even great-grandparents. Gathering even a little information can unlock your family's past.

¡Mi gente de Cuba, este post es para ustedes!

Although FamilySearch has limited resources for Cuba, I still believe it is worth exploring—especially the Catalog, where you may find digitized books, historical publications, and other valuable materials.

I also encourage you to explore the online resources shared in this post. Many dedicated researchers, genealogists, and volunteers have worked tirelessly over the years to preserve Cuban history and make genealogical information more accessible to others.

One resource worth exploring is the Cuban Research Project. Visit their website or contact them directly for more information. Depending on your research needs, they may be able to connect you with additional resources and provide guidance for researching families in Cuba.

Please note that Cuba continues to face significant challenges, and I am not in a position to know how current conditions may affect research efforts or access to records on the ground. Availability of information and assistance may vary.

No matter where your Cuban roots lead, don't give up. Every record, photograph, family story, and document brings you one step closer to discovering your family's history. 🌳📜🇨🇺
