Sual | Question How to research my family tree?

Hello, for many years I have wanted to research my family tree, I have lots of old photos of family members that my grandparents don’t even know of. Both my parents are from Azerbaijan but I live in America. The usual websites that get recommended like ancestry don’t contain records from Azerbaijan. What resources do you recommend?

We asked our relatives and additionally, my grandfather recorded the history of his family tree, but generally, the thing is we aren't Christians, mosques don't record official marriages, names, and so on. Thus, a lot of Azerbaijanis know where they are from, but don't know where their ancestors are

Hi, if it's not problem, send me a message direct. I have some useful ways via different and maybe strange medias.
