2026-05-04 Luke ... He Is Your Father: In honor of Star Wars day (May the Fourth be with you), here is an interesting article from Family History Daily that highlights unusual places (no Death Stars) to find missing parents for ancestors in your tree. There are tips for working with census records, city directories, newspapers, and more. (Although not as popular as the movie, the article does have nearly 100,000 shares.) For more tips on finding parents, see Next Steps in the Vault section.
