Specific Topic Research Lists

I really appreciate lists of resources on specific topics. Sites like Joe Beine's www.deathindexes.com, http://home.att.net/~wee-monster/vitalrecords.html and www.militaryindexes.com are wonderful aids to genealogy researchers.

Other researchers and bloggers have made resource lists - I've been reading Valorie Zimmerman's genealogy blog for some time at http://genweblog.blogspot.com . On her current page she has lists for:

1) Newspapers at http://genweblog.blogspot.com/2007/01/newspapers.html

2) Ontario at http://genweblog.blogspot.com/2007/01/ontario.html

3) Timelines at http://genweblog.blogspot.com/2007/01/timelines.html

4) Creating Simple Websites at http://genweblog.blogspot.com/2007/01/creating-simple-websites.html

5) Continuing Education for Genealogists at http://genweblog.blogspot.com/2007/01/continuing-education-for-genealogists.html

6) Genealogy Blogs and Podcasts at http://genweblog.blogspot.com/2006/11/genealogy-blogs-and-podcasts.html

7) Maps at http://genweblog.blogspot.com/2006/10/maps.html

8) Epidemics at http://genweblog.blogspot.com/2006/08/epidemics.html

9) Ireland at http://genweblog.blogspot.com/2006/08/ireland.html

10) Old Photographs at http://genweblog.blogspot.com/2006/07/old-photographs.html

You get the idea - you can check Valorie's blog index at http://valorie.zimmerman.googlepages.com/genweblogindex.

What other blogs or web sites create similar "one-stop shopping" lists? Tell me about them.

If you like research lists you're gonna love the Feb.15th edition of the Carnival of Genealogy because it's going to be along those same lines. I won't spill the beans yet... the next edition will be out in a few days and you'll see then ;-)
