I can't believe the supposedly TOP 100 doesn't even name ROOTSWEB.
Rootsweb has it all, folks....just go to:
http://www.rootsweb.com/
This is the oldest and best genealogy site on the internet!!! Everything's
FREE...you can even get free space for your own webpage and they help you
set it up if you have trouble doing it yourself.
Type in any of your "surnames" and see how much you'll find! You can go to
the World Connect project:
http://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/
and find millions of actual family trees....I have found so many new
"cousins" through ROOTSWEB.
Want to join a mailing list for a particular state and county? Go to:
http://www.rootsweb.com/~maillist/us/index.html
Click on the state listed on the left side of screen...then check out the
lists for each county.....a wonderful way to meet new "cousins" and find
your long-lost ancestor.
You could spend hours just checking out everything on their main page....I
urge you to do it...it's the BEST of the web for genealogy research!
Have fun....and remember to stop and take a breath and feed the cat (or your
husband!!!)

It should definitely be Number 1 on the Top 100 Websites...wonder why it
isn't even mentioned...Hmmmmm...makes you wonder!
