Link: Free family history familysearch.org
June 22, 2011 in Links
I haven’t checked out genealogy online much in the last few years, but times are changing and you can actually get family documents online for free. You don’t even have to sign up.
Searching for my great grandfather, I got just a little worried when I found out his sister has the same name as his… wife! But then I tracked down the documents for his wife, thank goodness that one was a coincidence. Apparently Maudie/Maud was a common name back then. Phew!
There is plenty of census information on the site, and in some cases the actual documents are scanned in at high resolution. There are also marriage and death records, and probably a whole lot more.
