Please
e-mail
Diane McLeod to add your clues to the
page
For all those of you interested in genealogy matters related to New Brunswick,
this page is for you!
We've all surfed the 'Net combing through thousands of websites, finding clues
that have helped in our own personal searches and many of us have tried
to pass some of
that information on through the mailing lists we belong to or on our own
websites.
My experience, however, says that there has to be a better way... so, here's
the start of our repository.
If you come across a site, a single page on a site (or a single paragraph for
that
matter) that has been helpful in
your search for New Brunswick family, please
e-mail
me with the site/page address (URL) together
with a brief synopsis of what the site or page relates to and I will be happy
to post the information here (please reference "NB Clues Repository" in your
e-mail).
I will
NOT
vet the information because if you found it helpful in your research, someone
else might
as well. I will, however,
DISCLAIM
all responsibility for the contents of the
information listed here - you know the drill... never assume and don't take
anything as gospel unless
you see the primary source. I will also
NOT
link to commercial/pay-for-info sites
no matter how invaluable they may seem unless they have
free
historical/genealogical
information available as well.
I should also point out that these links are freely accessible on
the Internet and I have absolutely no interest in them except for the
information which they may
impart. This is simply a way of gathering, into a small database, the
information about our New Brunswick families
that's sitting on computer hard-drives all over the world, to assist each other
in disseminating that information.
This can't be done without input from all of you seasoned researchers out there
so please take
a moment to send me your invaluable clues.
For those of you who have information that you've paid for but are willing to
share, please send me the text and I will gladly convert it to HTML and post the
information. If you have information that is copyrighted but that you wish to
share through
lookups, please advise me of your shareable resource(s) and your
e-mail address and I will post that as well.
And to all of you whose pages we cite or whose expertise we obtain through your
generosity, thank you so much. GOOD HUNTING!
