Google Books

x
Google Books is a great resource for family research. For those who don't know, this is a project to digitize tens of thousands of books across the globe and make them available for searching by indexing their content using the Google search engine. It is particularly good for genealogists as there are a lot of copyright free texts available for research and download. These texts include items like 19th century town and county histories and biographies. For more detail on using Google Books for genealogy see this article

Researching family history is far more than creating a family tree and seeing how far back you can trace your ancestors. This is just a beginning, a framework, from which a rich tapestry of heroes and villains, impossible journeys and amazing stories can be hung.
