Anyone, virtually anyone interested in searching their families' roots, or their partner's -- has to appreciate the depth and scope of Cyndislist. A number of years back, this portal was considered the most hot-linked single web site, outside of academic sites, bar none. It has an immense amount of material, web links, assists, on and on for: historians, genealogists, family history buffs, professionals of all types and persuasions. And to her credit, I believe, she still has a very limited staff and does much of the sites' work and reviews. Enjoy.
