GENEALOGY TODAY

Genealogy research is one of the most frustrating, time-consuming and fascinating areas of our field. It can be tremendously rewarding, but it helps to have a seasoned guide or a good Web site. Web sites that focus on genealogy, that organize and recommend sites and products, are much appreciated by the harried researcher.

If you’ve never climbed a family tree, you can receive some helpful hints by clicking on Getting Started. Click on Family History for a link to Genealogy Meta-Search, which searches dozens of databases.

Unfortunately, though it is listed under Research Tools, the International Registry of Genealogical Databases is not yet available. It looks promising, so you may want to keep checking back.

In The News provides topical issues, including a recent article showing George W. Bush and John Kerry to be at least ninth cousins twice removed.

Canadian, UK and Australian editions are also available from the home page.

Note: some of the links point to fee-based resources.
