My friend, Regina Negrycz, has just completed a new Ancestral Guide. This one is entitled a Evaluating Online City Directory Databases. This handy Ancestral Guide details the various online web-based City Directory Databases that are available to genealogists. As all genealogists know, city directories can hold a wealth of valuable information that can help in establishing ancestry and locating cousins. Locating the directory that you need can often be a challenge. This guide helps the researcher in knowing where to look online, and what to expect from the various websites.
The following is a brief summary of the information found in this valuable Ancestral Guide.
