Research Timelines: A Tool for Analysis & Correlation
Research timelines are not just for publication--use them as part of your research process to organize and assess the mountain of information you have uncovered for your ancestor. Research timelines can be a very valuable tool for uncovering inconsistencies, sorting two men of the same name, and helping to build a solid case.

On a Budget? Access the U.S. Census for Free
A wide variety of options exist online for searching and viewing digitized copies of U.S. census records from 1790 to 1940. Several subscription-based sites offer the entire run, with seamless searching and browsing. However, if you only need access to a few census records, or are particularly budget-conscious, you can also achieve free access to the entire U.S. census run 1790-1940 with a little extra effort.

Discover Treasures in the HathiTrust Digital Library
Google Books is definitely not the only game in town when it comes to digitized family history books. Due to its association with over 70 major academic and research libraries, HathiTrust Digital Library provides free online access to a wide range of historical sources, including historical books, government documents & other research treasures.
