Start with what you remember

Turn a memory into a research path

A company or product name is often only the beginning. Add the place, approximate years and work being done, then compare those memories with historical records.

1. Start with the company or product

Use the name you remember—even if it is incomplete, abbreviated or an older company name. Product names, packaging, equipment and material descriptions can also provide a starting point.

2. Add the place

Think about the plant, shipyard, building, department, jobsite, contractor or work area. A location can help distinguish between similar company and product names.

3. Add the years and the work

Approximate years, job titles and hands-on tasks can narrow the search because products, ownership, formulations and work practices changed over time.

4. Check the historical records

Compare what is remembered with company records, product literature, trust materials, court records and other reliable historical sources that may help reconstruct the story.
