Always appropriate, perfect for every genealogist on your list, and less expensive than dinner out for four, a RootsWeb gift membership at the Sponsor Plus level would provide your friends or family members with a home on the Web. For about the price of a two-pound box of drugstore chocolates, you might thank your paperboy for crushing your petunias by introducing him to the fun of exploring history and solving mysteries with the gift of a basic RootsWeb membership. * * *
