Good job on the series Linda. Thank you. I'd like to offer up one more link, somewhat local in nature. Banjoman also mentioned it earlier in a comment. It isn't the friendliest site to navigate, but I love much of what I've found there over the years. Not just a genealogy resource, but a great local history resource for Bradford, Chemung and Tioga Counties.
