Clare, If you Google New+England+Genealogy there are a number of listings for web sites for the area as well as the New England Genealogy Society which is an old and large organization.

Has anyone ever done family history research in Boston? I have a tiny bit of info about my great-great-granduncle, James Higgins. My grandfather's notes say he came to the US in 1850 and settled in Boston. That's all I have!!! I will try the Boston Public Library but can anyone suggest other places? Thanks.
