>genealogy societies, historical societies, historical sites, libraries,
>newspapers, software packages, family history groups, and anything else
>that may help the reader.  The reader first selects the country of interest.
>A map of that country appears.  From there the reader clicks on

>searching for societies, etc.  The guide will become available sometime
>this summer--free of charge.  The guide is really never complete and since
>addresses of organizations are dynamic the guide requires constant maintenance.
>We've only just begun.  Currently the guide includes: Australia, Canada,
>England, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, Poland,
>Scotland, Switerland, United States and Wales.  If anyone would like
