Subject: Free eBook Genealogical Periodical Index
From Eastman's Online Genealogical Newsletter:
- Free "Genealogical Periodical Annual Index"
Heritage Books has released an "eBook edition" of the "Genealogical
Periodical Annual Index." The latest edition of this index is now available
at no charge.
The following is the announcement from Heritage Books:
By the regular use of Genealogical Periodical Annual Index (GPAI),
researchers can save hundreds of hours spent duplicating research which has
already been done, or in trying to find the resources they need.An
essential research aid: For nearly forty years GPAI has been an essential
tool for historical and genealogical researchers because it is a
comprehensive surname, locality, and subject index to hundreds of major
genealogical periodicals published in the English language each year.
These periodicals contain a wealth of historical and genealogical data such
as: family Bible records; compiled genealogies; abstracts of source records
from town, county, state, and national archives, as well as innumerable
private collections.In addition to indexing all the substantive articles in
these periodicals, GPAI also indexes the many book, CD-ROM, and eBook
reviews which appear in them. Thus, the GPAI user also learns of new
resources which appear in these formats, as well as the thousands of
periodical articles.Nine eBook volumes currently available:Heritage has now
introduced eBook editions of the volumes of GPAI from 1992 through 2000.
These new eBook editions are totally electronic, totally searchable, Adobe
Acrobat (tm) *.PDF files, and are available via email delivery at a
fraction of the cost of the cloth bound library editions (which are also
available).
In order to make more researchers aware of this valuable research tool,
Heritage is giving away free copies of the latest edition of GPAI for a
limited time to all subscribers to its twice-monthly email newsletter,
Heritage News (which is itself a useful tool for researchers).
To get your free eBook go to

Hello Clibborn List members, long time no speak.
I take this opportunity to wish you all Compliments of the coming Festive
Season.
The undermentioned free software package needs testing by someone with the
time to
review it and let the rest of us know what you think of it. Any
volunteers?!!!
Colin Hinson, the GENUKI coordinator for Yorkshire, has a great little free
software package people might be interested in using. It takes data from
the IGI and moves it quickly into a spreadsheet program such as Excel,
creating single line entries for each record you "capture". It's very
nice, and timesaving. He also has a 10-page instruction file, in case you
run into any problems, etc. The software address is :

Hope this helps everyone!

I belong to the 'Claiborne Clan' which includes everyone who is a
Claiborne/Clibborn/Cliburn etc descendant. I had an e-mail from them about a
possible reunion in Ireland next year in April or May with the idea of
visiting the places where the Cleburnes and Clibborns came from. If anyone
can suggest an itinerary let me know - Dublin, Clonmel, Moate, and Cork are
possibilities. Chris and I will be in Dublin next May - he is going to a
conference and I will be doing research in the National Archives and the
Quaker library there.
