Resources currently available^B online include vital records;^B census^B records; probate and court records;^B cemeteries and tombstone inscriptions; military records; land and property records; church records; and newspapers, journals, books, wills and manuscripts.

The book was okay, but nothing really special. Several of the links didn't work, probably because it was copyrighted a while ago.

If you don't subscribe to ancestry, this book is pointless

Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2007

I had hoped that this book would help me locate treasures on the internet. Unfortunately it is, for the most part, a printed index to what is available on ancestry.com. If you don't subscribe to ancestry, don't waste time or money on this book.
