Even though I'm not the person who asked about genealogical research sites, I'm very pleased to see all of the links that you provided. Can you tell me why the Ancestry Library database is only available on campus.
Hi Mary,
I am glad that you found the list of resources useful. I found the answer to your question on the Michigan eLibrary blog.
Make sure to check out some of the books available at LCC Library on genealogical research.
Good luck with your research.
I'm the one that asked about genealogical resources, so I thank you very much for your follow-up! :-)
