Ancestry.com is pretty good. It *may* cost money, but I think there is a free trial. Try googling "family tree" or even "ancestry".

You have to start the chain with yourself. You collect all documents on yourself, your parents and your grandparents, as far back as you can go, before you start looking around. When you have got yourself a three or four generation (or maybe even longer) tree, then you can use other sites to "piggyback". It is highly likely that someone out there is tracing the same line as you, but maybe their ancestry branched off at a different time. eg there might be someone out there researching their line which descends from a brother of your great-great-great-great grandfather. Here are some sites to use when you get your initial tree together: GENERAL: ancestry.com genesreunited.com familysearch.org ( a Mormon site, with great info going back a thousand years, but there is a lot of inaccuracy on it, so be prepared to do a lot of confirmation by comparing to other sites) SPECIFIC genforum.genealogy.com/billington/ members.aol.com/mliller900/myhomepage/ www.mayflowerfamilies.com/mayflower/john_billington_family.htm jim-bill.tripod.com/ www.mayflowerhistory.com/Passengers/JohnBillington.php All the best.

I believe that the Mormons have a good genealogy thing. You could give it a try.
