Not sure this has been mentioned before: http://www.genguide.co.uk/about/ The site states: "The idea behind the GenGuide is to offer beginners and experienced genealogists and family historians an easy and convenient way to find descriptions of and information on genealogical sources. Keeping track of developments in new databases, web sites and reference books is a challenge and one of the aims of the GenGuide is to provide a facility where these resources are easily and quickly found. Hopefully you will find targeted and relevant information and spend less time sifting through internet search results or potentially missing relevant information and web sites. Each genealogical source in the GenGuide is fully searchable by a number of individual fields or across all fields." I searched for "Medieval" and also for "Probate" and got a number of interesting articles... ...and "Surname Origins" gives some useful links. HTH, Ken
