This was a good site: BLM - ES, GLO Records - Home ... The Official Federal Land Patent Records Site Welcome to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), General Land Office (GLO) Records Automation web site. We provide ... http://www.glorecords.blm.gov/ However, when I went in today, it had been taken over and the site was black with a weird mask and printed under it was "Owned by PozionBox." This was a Federal project and it is hard to believe that they would let it be corrupted. I wonder if they are aware of this, and who would you check with to find out what happened? Any suggestions? Thanks, Jean Suman

There is the National History Day year-long education program that engages students in grades 6-12 in the process of discovery and interpretation of historical topics. http://www.thehistorynet.com/NationalHistoryDay/01_about/01.html Contact: National.History.Day@umail.umd.edu "The NHD program serves as a vehicle to teach students important literacy skills and to engage them in the use and understanding of museum and library resources. The program inspires students to study local history, and then challenges them to expand their thinking and apply knowledge of local events to the national, or even worldwide scene." . . . "Now, 2 million people are engaged annually from nearly every state in the union." The infrastructure is already created. Members of this group could participate and create a more inclusive "National History and Genealogy Day" for the USA; then, internationally for all other countries in the world. http://www.thehistorynet.com/NationalHistoryDay/04_parents/04.html Respectfully yours, Tom Tinney, Sr. Genealogy and Family History Internet Web Directory http://www.dcn.davis.ca.us/~vctinney/ "Free Coverage of the Genealogy World in a Nutshell" Who's Who in America, Millennium Edition [54th] - Who's Who In Genealogy and Heraldry, [both editions]

I just finished 10 more census spreadsheets, this time covering the states of New York, Kansas, Massachusetts, and Wisconsin. There are now 26 different spreadsheets to download free from my website at http://censustools.com to let you electronically organize your census data from the U.S. federal (1790-1920), Canada (1851-1901), England (1841-1819), Ireland (1821-1911), Scotland (1841-1891), Kansas (1865-1925), Massachusetts (1855-1865), New York (1825-1925) and Wisconsin (1836-1905). Each spreadsheet has worksheets for each applicable census year, formatted to match the original microfilmed records. The New York state spreadsheet also has a page for the 1890 NY City police census. Help yourself! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
