<br> | <br> Most archives, historical societies, and genealogical societies have special collections of previous research and indexes of genealogical value. To begin the search of an ancestor in these collections, you may wish to begin with available published indexes, both on a national level as well as a local level. Many genealogy databases are on line through various websites. | ||
=== Nationwide Indexes === | |||
*FamilySearch™ Internet Genealogy Service - [https://familysearch.org/#form=trees Trees] contains lineages organized into family groups and pedigrees with an every-name index. This was created from a database formerly known as [[Ancestral File|Ancestral File.]] | |||
*The Family History Library has an extensive collection of almost 50,000 published U.S. family histories and newsletters. Copies at the library are listed in the [https://familysearch.org/#form=catalog&catSearchType=surname Last names Search] of the Family History Library Catalog. | |||
*Major collections of printed family histories are also found at most of the archives and libraries listed in [[United States Archives and Libraries]]. Most large libraries have indexes and catalogs to published family histories. For a list of the indexes and catalogs available at the Family History Library see the [[United States Genealogy#Family_Histories|Family History]] section of [[United States Genealogy|United States Genealogy]] in the Wiki. | |||
*[http://search.ancestry.com/search/db.aspx?dbid=1030 Ancestry.com] ($) Public and Private member trees. | |||
*[http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/ World Connect] includes hundreds of thousands of ancestors in pedigrees and family trees with an easy to use index. | |||
*Periodical Source Index ([[Periodical Source Index (PERSI)|PERSI]]). There are more than 126,000 surnames included in the PERSI database which is available on the Internet at [http://www.heritagequestonline.com/hqoweb/library/do/index HeritageQuestOnline.com] as well as at [http://search.ancestry.com/search/db.aspx?dbid=3165 Ancestry.com]. Both are subscription websites, but often available at local libraries. | |||
