Overview and Methodology
Anything listed in GALILEO Public Interface was fair game.
Several databases / resources were selected for this session. This does not represent the all of the resources available through GALILEO that have information that can be useful for genealogical research.
As with some genealogy searches, we’re starting with General resources and working our way to specific resources.
