Rootsweb mailing list for buying/selling genealogical material

I was alerted to this Rootsweb Genealogy Materials Mailing List via another mailing list. Subscription required.

[Blurb]
"...Anyone with an interest in the buying or selling of new or used genealogy materials (e.g., books, newsletters, CDs, magazines) in United Kingdom and Ireland. Publishers of newsletters, books, or other materials relating to genealogy are welcome, as are resellers of any form of used genealogical materials, be they businesses or individuals cleaning bookshelves. Purchases are arranged in private posting between the buyer and the seller rather than on the list. NOTE: Commercial sellers please limit postings to one a month..."

Lynda's Lot Facebook page

If you have links to any of the families on my Lynda's Lot and related sites, I've created a Facebook page where you can post your queries, information, links, photos etc.  Having a Facebook account is the only requirement.

Generous Genealogists (free research assistance)

Generous Genealogists is a new website providing free genealogical help to those in need; all countries seem to be covered.  As well as a forum on which to post your brickwalls (sign-up required but it's free) , you can make contact with a volunteer directly my email.

"...[We] are a community of volunteers who agree to provide free genealogy research, coaching and assistance, as an act of kindness, to "those in need."  But, that simple statement does not define us totally.  We are a vibrant, vital and growing community teaching and helping each other in the best methods and traditions of the genealogists of today, yesterday and hopefully tomorrow.
We are constantly striving for excellence, empathy and understanding of each other, our pasts, our families and who we are.  We are here to help you break through your brickwalls, discuss tools & techniques, provide coaching and learn from each other..."

New Zealand Research Guide


Primarily this guide is for those whose people came from the British Isles.  I’m not saying you’ll be able to do all your research from the comfort of your own home but if you have a computer with Internet access and some time on your hands there is an awful lot you can do without setting foot outside.

Lynda's List

I set up this site to help Kiwi researchers of British Isles descent, therefore links mainly relate to Australasia and the British Isles and its dominions.
