3) Genealogy Articles, Tips & Research Guides: http://www.genealogybranches.com/
Most of the links for the first and second websites are referred to in the third website. A careful researcher will have to search all three, however.
I find these websites immensely useful, and they are usually my first choice to find information about one of the topics above. I appreciate Joe's hard work to organize these links into useful lists and to keep them updated.
If you haven't visited these sites before, please spend some time looking through them - then bookmark or favorite them and use them!
Thank you, Randy! :) I'm humbled to be in your cool blog. And now I can easily keep track of my websites :) I'm bookmarking this...
