You'll also find genealogies concentrating on families from specific states such as Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and Virginia. In addition, there are more than 200 books on locations, most of which are in the United States. There are more than 900 items available in the records category, including some very helpful census indexes. Records range from Bible collections and birth records to census records and court records. The individual's last name, first name, locality, and census page number are included.
Some entries also indicate the number and age of household inhabitants.
It would be nice to know where this data came from. The other drawback I found was that it was impossible to search one particular book unless the full title of the book was included as part of the keywords. It made for some awkward searching, but it can be done. These are two of the things I found lacking in the Genealogy Library, but diligent researchers will find it relatively easy to refine their search techniques to accommodate the Genealogy Library search engine. How to Use the Books in the Library Genealogies You might be asking what exactly the online books look like, and how you use them.
