We recently added many new records from many websites including the Texas Research Ramblers Genealogical Society, Rochester Genealogical Society, city and town maps from the Library of Congress, cemetery and burial records listings from Interment, records from Ancestry.com, yearbooks from Classmates, newspapers from Advantage Preservation, newspapers from Fulton History, and the latest records from FamilySearch. We are now up to 1,071,527 records!

We recently added many new records including more yearbooks from MyHeritage, Ancestry, and E Yearbook; city directories from several sites including Archive.org; and details from specific collections on Ancestry.com. We are now up to 1,053,656 records in our directory!

We recently consolidated some of our links into one single link in order to make some of the longer pages easier to navigate. It reduced the number of total links so our overall number of records went down, but the quality of the links was improved.
We also added records from several public libraries in Connecticut, as well as the Connecticut State Library. We also added links to Sanborn maps from the Library of Congress, partial indexes for smaller localities from the 1940 census, transcriptions of some records in Massachusetts, books from Archive.org, added indexes from Every Name Index, and added yearbooks from Ancestry.com, E Yearbook, MyHeritage, and Classmates.com. We also corrected some broken links that were no longer working.
We are now up to 1,000,719 records in our directory!

We have added more cemetery records, particularly from Billion Graves and Cemetery Census. We also made some changes to our larger pages to make them easier to navigate. We are now up to 1,060,369 records in our directory!

We have recently added the following learning articles to our site:

• Brick Wall Ancestor Series #30: Finding the parents of an adopted child born in the 1870s in Ohio Emma was listed in the census in an adopted family and her marriage record listed her as having unknown parents. Birth records, studying the nearby families, and autosomal DNA evidence pointed to her biological family.
• Brick Wall Ancestor Series #31: Identifying the family of a man with a common name There were many men named Charles Miller so it was difficult to determine which one he was. A draft registration card gave clues to identify the correct man.
