SOME INTERESTING LINKS

http://www.academic-genealogy.com/index.htm

Professional, worldwide humanities and social sciences mega portal, connected directly to numerouslyrelated sub-sets, with billions of primary or secondary database family history and genealogy records.

Review: You could spend hours and hours on this web site. There are dozens and dozens of links to information for the researcher. From something called “Black Sheep Ancestors” to GenGateway. The latter has such items as:

Biographical Illustrations of Worcestershire
Scotch Highlanders in America
History of Eastern Worcester, MA
History of Herkimer County


http://www.academic-genealogy.com/whocanfindpeople.htm

Ongoing current information and resources for genealogist, family historians and researchers to find People, Places and Things.

Review: This is a site with links to many, many organizations not all necessarily for researching family history. But there are some links that could be useful. There are phone directories, trades union listing, the Rotary. Lists of place names, a place to search public records. Well worth taking a look at even if you only use a couple of the links.
