Feel free to use the page,
but be warned the links may or may not work.
Revised as of Jan 2005
Disclaimer-
Some of the following links will be dead,
and frankly, I don't care!
Please Don't E-mail Me with corrections.
They all worked as of Jan 29,2005
rechecked and modified some Apr 11, 2008
One day I will remove them, when I recheck them.
There is some great genealogy links below,
and would recommend them for sure.
The beauty of having your Bookmarks on the Web,
Is I have easy access to them, anywhere in the world,
when I am travelling.
They are in categories, to make the search a little easier.
1. Search Engines
- #1a-
Google Canada (for all us
Canucks)
-
#1b. Google.com
(American version)
(tough to beat this search engine)
I love the Google toolbar, a little option they offer free,
just click on the more... button, top of their home page.-
I place mine top of my browser page, and it is ready to go at any
moment.
- If your looking for pictures on the net, use their
images search feature.
It is simply the best! also Google Earth is pretty nifty or Google
Local if you don't need the software
