something to check out.... i have NOT investigated.... Subject: [ROOTS-L] 32,468 Illinois County Research Links Hi all! .....some new software, .....a collection of links for folks interested in Illinois (USA) genealogical research. ....kinda large -- 32,468 links and growing -- so it should be of value to almost anyone doing research in Illinois. The focus is on county-level resources, so it covers material that differs from what you might find on the ROOTS-L State Pages and CyndisList. The URL is: http://www.linkpendium.com/ and follow the link near the bottom of the page to the alpha test site. Note that this *IS* an alpha test. That means the software isn't really ready for prime time yet and will be undergoing frequent revisions. Please be patient with us as we grow the facility.
