Genealogy is My Hobby! "HOT PICKS" for the month of April 1998 can be viewed at http://home.earthlink.net/~middleton ****Society Hill: The Internet Directory of Genealogical and Historical Societies. This is a new site on the internet dedicated to helping individuals get in contact with local genealogical and historical societies around the country. Society Hill has over 3,500 addresses (many with urls) of societies around the U.S., organized by state. Society Hill is the culmination of many countless hours of Internet research. The society listings were collected from numerous sources and consolidated into a single directory. In addition we indexed all of the information by state and/or territory, and made it completely searchable. ***Fianna Irish Genealogy Resources: During the spring term of 1997 we were all participants in an excellent on-line introductory course in genealogy, taught at Virtual University by Marthe Ahrends. Part of the process of the course was to form into study groups by interests. We were all interested in tracing Irish roots, and as we met and bonded into a group, we selected the name "Fianna" for both our group and the result of some of our on-line researches, the web page Fianna: Irish History and Ancestry. We worked well together and enjoyed being together, and so developed ways to remain together. Those of you who join the Fianna-L are welcome to be part of our happy 'clanna'!
