Looking for someone?

[logcabinmama]

If you go to http://www.rootsweb.com do a search on a name, it will bring up a lot of things. When it comes up, click on world connect. This will bring you to a list of names, if they have the name you are looking for. From there you can see if someone else is working on the same people you are.

Now, at the bottom of the page you get with all the names on, there is a place to add the spouse, mother, father and other information which will help narrow the hunt down.

Hope this helps someone.

Other places that can be helpful to beginning genealogists are:

www.ellisisland.com ( which is the ellis island immigration online service which has family listings along with other information about those who came through ellis island,

and

www.familysearch.org ( which is the mormon online genealogy service)

I hope these help!
