Some Real Research Sites on the Internet
Pamela K. Boyer, CG, CGL
Using the Internet for genealogical research can be a confusing and time-consuming process. More information
becomes available every day. Careful researchers know that much of the information on the World Wide Web is
not well documented. This lecture will introduce attendees to some reliable resources for real research. Included
will be such searchable sources as Virginia land grants, Bureau of Land Management General Land Office records,
vital records for several states, Scottish Origins General Register Office, British Origins records, and
United States and foreign telephone directories. Further examples will show how to find available information
at the National Archives, Library of Congress, and regional state archives.
