My Home Page at FamilyTreeMaker.com

This web site also has an online tree (InterneTree) of the over 2,200 individuals in the Struckmeyer-Ochonicky database. Information on this web site about living individuals is also kept private.
To do your own internet research, try the following sites:
Note: The first three sites in this list (Ancestry.com, Genealogy.com, RootsWeb.com) are all controlled by one corporation—The Generations Network. They also produce Family Tree Maker software. Although they offer some free services, they make money by selling annual software upgrades and annual subscriptions to historical databases. The upside is that they are making lots of valuable information accessible through the internet.
Ancestry maintains the web's largest collection of online historical records. A quick search on this site will reveal if anything is available in their record collections about the individual you are researching. However many of the databases can only be accessed by subscription. (I currently subscribe to U.S. records collection, U.S. immigration records, and U.S. census records.)
A quick search on this site will also reveal if anything is available in online record collections about the individual you are researching. However, like Ancestry.com, many of the databases can only be accessed by subscription.
This is an online genealogy community for learning and collaboration. I have not used it much, so I can't comment on its effectiveness.
This is the genealogy site of the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-Day Saints. They have additional databases and an enormous amount of microfilmed information from around the world that can be accessed at their Family Research Centers.
The passenger records at Ellis Island have been transcribed and are available in a searchable database for free. Keep in mind that Ellis Island only served as an immigration processing center from 1892-1924.
A lot of information is available online at www.archives.gov. I have not used it much to date, but plan to explore it more in the future.
This is the best-selling software for genealogy research. It is produced by The Generations Network which also owns Ancestry.com, Genealogy.com, RootsWeb.com, and MyFamily.com. Being best-selling doesn't necessarily mean it's the best software, but it is easy to use and can do quick online searches through its links with Ancestry.com.
