The CD-ROM contains the software for connecting to a selected online service. 150 illustrations.ReviewsThe author, Matthew and April Leigh Helm (mhelm@tbox.com), 05/15/98A common sense guide to researching your genealogy online. You're probably asking yourself how this book differs from the many other available genealogy books. Some books tell you only the traditional methods of genealogical research--others that do talk about online methods tend to group them by type of resource rather than explaining how you can integrate the many Internet resources to achieve your genealogical goals. In Genealogy Online for Dummies we provide details on how to prepare for going online, research names on the Internet, find locations where your ancestors lived, locate government, ethnic and hard to find records, publish your genealogical findings on the World Wide Web, and a provide a glossary of Internet and genealogical terms--all with a focus on integrating the many available resources. We also include several tools on the accompanying CD-ROM to assist you in your research including the full Basic Edition of the bestselling Family Tree Maker genealogical software, useful Internet utilities and browsers, and genealogical utilities to help you place your genealogy on the Internet. | ||
Netting Your Ancestors : Genealogical Research on the Internetby Cyndi Howells
ReviewsThe author, Cyndi Howells, cyndihow@oz.net, 11/23/97The only how-to book of its kind for Internet genealogy! My book takes you through all the ins and outs of the three most important tools you will use in your online research: e-mail, mailing lists & newsgroups, and the web. In writing this book I have answered questions that I have been asked in e-mail from visitors to my web site, Cyndi's List, and in the many classes that I have taught for genealogical research on the Internet. Students in my classes, and now readers of my book, all agree that whether you have been online for a year or if you are new to the Internet, you will find many new ideas, strategies and tips all throughout the book to aid you in Netting Your Ancestors.
The publisher, Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., 10/23/97
Customer CommentsKaren Isaacson (karen@rand.org) from the mountains of Southern California, 12/15/97The essential book for beginning Internet genealogists I don't know how Cyndi finds time to keep her fabulous web site up-to-date, let alone write a book that will get beginners in Internet genealogy off on the right foot, but she's done it. Now, if she'd just do a second miracle, and write a book for Internet oldbies, too!
