Following are some of my
favorite genealogy links
This page is another one for my
use. You can use it too if you
want. These are real "meaty" links - lots of complete
comprehensive information for specific areas. I can go here
whenever I find someone new and want to look for more info.
Although a few are links-to-links, the intent is to list sites where
there's complete information, not pieces, snipets, addresses,
bibliographies, etc.
