While I somewhat agree with this latest posting, ie: linking to commercial sites such as ancestry and rootsweb is a waste of time, there were some sites that I was unaware of or forget to check on when I am researching. yes, the pay sites and most of the other listings are a waste of time, when you click the link only to discover that there is no info available, or you have to sign on to them and pay, etc. However I did find a couple of free links that gave me some really good info that I would not have found elsewhere. If more of these non pay, non commercial site links could be incorporated, it would be an assett, especially to those doing broad research, or those who are beginners. I must note that I found the inclusion of Geneanet to be abit of a disgrace. The search is too broad to be of any use, and the information included is often full of errors or misleading.
