Websites - Blogs - Facebook Pages for Genealogy Research

Over the past several months, I've collected a list of helpful websites.  It began as a single page list that I used as a handout in my "Genealogy and Family Research" classes.  As time went by, of course, more and more sites interested me and I began to add them to the list.  Lately, a few Facebook pages have crept onto the list.  They're under "Polish Research".  The latest addition is Russ Worthington's blog for Family Tree Maker users.

So I put the list into Dropbox and you're welcome to click this Handouts link and download the list for your own use.

I could also use your help.  If there is a site that you have found to be particularly helpful in your own research, let me know!  I'll be happy to add it and upload the edited list to Dropbox for everyone to share.

I've been using Family Tree Maker for several years.  As a matter of fact, I bought my first edition at Circuit City and they've been gone for quite awhile!  I think I started using it around 1998 and I've bought every update since.  Recently, I've been reading Russ Worthington's blog titled Family Tree Maker User.  There is an amazing amount of information, instruction, tips and other useful information about getting the most out of FTM and with it, many research tips as well.  Click the link or put ftmuser.blogspot.com into your browser!
