Family History software

When filling out family records, it's great to have the same paper format throughout your records.
The FamilySearch.org website offers a Personal Ancestral File program that can be downloaded for FREE onto your computer to make keeping your familys' records easier. PAF, as it's called, allows you to record your information on forms which can be printed blank, with or without pictures, and you can view pedigree charts, family group sheets, individual records, and more.
Then, you can visit FamilySearch.org to search census indexes, and many other records, online to add to yours. Valuable resource!

We are having trouble getting starting our family history for Edwin's family. We have gone on the search and found some names, but we don't know how to link them together! There are a bunch of them, but none of them meet together, so we are kind of lost as to what we are supposed to do next. Can you help!?
