Genealogy should be more than just discovering the names, dates, and places associated with your present family and of your ancestors. Historical events - large and small, local and worldwide - all play a part in a family's history. By learning the history of an certain area might explain why a family moved - to it, or away from it. Knowing migration routes, occupations, homestead laws, immigration laws, etc. can all be helpful in doing research.

Newspaper articles, published family genealogies, personal biographies, family stories, and city & county histories can all contain valuable data which can add interesting information to a family’s history. The information available from the above pages are what I’ve found while doing genealogy research. I hope that you find it interesting and useful.
