These tabs are popular labeled for descendancy charts, research planners, to do lists, and other reports. The tan tabs that do not expand as much and those used as finding aids to information which will follow comprise the first section. For example, some people put research aids such as maps, gazetteers, and county histories in the front.

These tan tabs can also be used in the back of the lighter colored Family Group Record tabs until the book becomes full. They are used to file surname family printouts that cover more than one MRIN, references to publications searched for a surname, and also locality tabs to file searches done in a place for multiple surnames and record groups. It is, therefore, easy to moved these customized tabs to a new binder without much effort involved. In fact many clients must have several surname and locality tabs to refer to when another clue takes a researcher back to a previous search. For example, when it is discovered that the surname could be spelled another way, and the researcher wants to determine if this other surname spelling was searched.
