Greetings,

   I just thought that I should share this new Website that gives a free searchable CD-ROM with any family genealogy book purchase, I bought some books from them and each of my books comes with a free searchable cd-rom. I remember buying those CDs from other website separate even thought I had bought the book from them.

Thanks for the book lists.  Always helpful.  I ordered a copy of the Electra Spangler book and was really disappointed.  It's the pedigree portion of someone's Daughters of the American Revolution application and has absolutely no resources cited.  You can find the same information for free online.  One example is http://berks.pa-roots.com/familyfolder/Thompson.html  Happy Hunting Everyone!
