The Internet provides tremendous resources for genealogy research. The links you will find on this page, may be divided into two kinds: 1) The portal or website that gives access to any number of more specialised links. 2) Specialised links, such as links that will connect to national genealogy sites or message boards for the exchange of genealogical information about particular surnames. It is impossible for me to cover the entire scala of links, what I can do is helping to steer "newbies" in the right direction.
1. PORTALS. Here are some Genealogy Portals I have found very useful: ANCESTRAL FINDINGS, for free "look ups", especially useful for the USA. BEGINNERS Family History and Internet Help for Beginners The Genealogy Home Page Cyndi's list of Genealogy Sites on the Internet. Extremely extensive and useful. Rootsweb, also very extensive. Includes instructional pages. Genealogy Links, provides entry into many national websites. Genealogy Spot. A great place to start. 2. OTHER GENEALOGY LINKS Although these links may also be found in the Portals, they serve as a shortcut. To begin with some national sites: Australian Links Coraweb, an Australian portal
