This morining I checked out Cyndi's List for her Ireland Information, and was pleasantly surprised to find some new additions. Her site and this section of it has about anything you ever wanted to know about Ireland and were afraid to ask about, until now! and more to boot! (How to, Lists, Places to Go to Find Data, Ireland Oriented Web Sites, Various types of records available to search from and where to find them, online data bases to search, message boards, how to build a web site and the tools to do it with, Book lists and where to find them, CD's and where to find them, Software and where to find them, Cemeteries, IGI Batch Numbers, and on and on it goes from there). Take a look and see for yourself: http://www.cyndislist.com/ireland.htm You might want to bookmark this page (if you haven't already) and refer to it often, as it is a wonderful tool to have in your genealogy tool box. I should check here more often, as the list continues to grow and amaze me! There is even coverage of copyright there that might be of help to those of you withholding sharing some pieces of information that you have on this list, that would be of help to others.. Maybe reading it will help all of us understand the law and our safe use of copies & extracts. http://www.genuki.org.uk/org/Copyright.html Another excellent section on Cyndi's site is the one on Online Searching, that leads to the Mormon LDS Site in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. This link is really helpful for helping you with online searches.. http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/RG/frameset_rg.asp?Dest=G1&Aid=&Gid=&Lid=&Sid=&Did=&Juris1=&Event=&Year=&Gloss=&Sub=&Tab=&Entry=&Guide=Ireland.ASP Here's a section that help you with using the internet: http://www.cyndislist.com/internet.htm And I thought, I knew everything about using the internet! This is a great section on her site that provides the tools & instructions to build your own web site: http://www.cyndislist.com/construc.htm If I only knew about this one before I started my first web page project. How simple it would have been! Even the tools are here to let you do it. Friendly Software, tools to put your site on the search engines, automated method of putting keywords in the right place on your web site so the search engines will find your site and know what's in it, where to find free web space on an internet server. The whole nine yards! There is not enough room to show all the good things on Cyndi's web site pages. No doubt most of you have " been there, seen that or done that", so for those of you who haven't, and those that haven't been there recently, check it out! Her main page is at: http://www.cyndislist.com I hope this is of help to all of you! Thanks Cyndi! You even have my web site listed on SW Co. Down, now you can't get better than that! Ha Ha!
