    3. Hi folks, Today the March/April Everton's Genealogical Helper arrived. I was very happy indeed as I had missed it dreadfully (went into abeyance thar for a while and my subscription lapsed, etc. Then I joined their library, which gives you access to Proquest....). If you've not read it, check it out at a local Borders or other store with lots of mags. The website is http://www.everton.com/ . Anyway in it is an article on becoming a better genealogists. It also has an article on the migration of Canadians into the USA with a nice map showing 'where they went'. A third of our ancestors came that way, so you won't find them in post 1820 american ship lists. Forget border crossings -- we got those from about 1900. Anyway the map was very useful. Plus an article on solving dead ends. I am not sure you can read enough of these. However in the back of my aging brain I had pasted a note to myself to figure out what this ipod thing was. Clearly I have fallen off the tech wagon as I don't have one. I don't even want one. But I've started to see content I wanted to read appear in it. There's an article on ipods and how you can download free software (itunes) to listen to them on your computy and not have to fork out more money to Radio Shark or whoever. This was great news as my computy is now in good shape after $600s I spent on it last week. GH is a good place to learn about newly published cds, books, etc. I ain't that far in it yet!
