Saturday Night Genealogy Fun- Your "Favorite" Genealogy Websites

It's Saturday Night - 

time for more Genealogy Fun! 


Your mission, should you decide to accept it (cue the Mission Impossible music here) is to:

1)   What are your "Favorite" genealogy websites?  What ones do you have in your web browser "Bookmarks" or "Favorites" bar or listing?

2)  Please list them in your own blog post, in a comment on this post, or in a Facebook post.  Please leave a link to your work in a comment on this post.

Perhaps we can help each other, and our readers, find some new resources!


I usually bookmark blog posts to read or look at later and resources included in them as well.
I usually go on these sites just about everyday.

FamilySearch.org (indexing, wiki, catalog, records, learning center)
Google.com (search, sheets, books, docs, drive, Gmail)

If I am working in a specific locality, I go to my locality guide that I created and use the following links that I need.


I found this website, Libraries.org, which is an international directory of all libraries in the world, in my bookmarks. I forgot I even had it.

I don't always bookmark websites because if I remember what they are called, all I need to do is to start typing in the address bar, and it will usually show when you hover over the name of the URL.

I wrote a blog post about organizing your bookmarks. If you are interested, check it out. 




Thanks for reading,

Saturday Night Genealogy Fun- Which Ancestors Would You Like to Talk to?

It's  Saturday Night  -  time for more  Genealogy Fun!   Your mission, should you decide to accept it (cue the Mission Impossible music here) is to: 1)  We sometimes find we have questions we would love to discuss with our ancestors - the who, what, when, why and how questions that might help with our genealogy research. 2)  Which ancestors would you like to talk to?  What questions would you ask?   3)  Tell us about it in your own blog post, in a comment to this blog post, or in a post on Facebook. There are so many ancestors I would love to talk to, but I will only list my top 5 ancestors. 💗 1)   My first choice would be my great-grandmother, Clara Loretta Scott Armstead (1904-1998). I would ask her what her biological mother's name is, the reasoning behind why her brothers were placed in an orphanage, and why her ex-husband, Anthony Tony Armstead, was abusive toward her sons and possibly ...
