I got this from a genealogy list I am subscrbed to. I briefly went to the site and checked it out--it looks like a great free resource!Archive.org has an interesting section of on-line books about genealogy. To quote them, "The Archive's ever-expanding collection of genealogy resources includes items from the Allen County Public Library Genealogy Center in Fort Wayne, Indiana; Robarts Library at the University of Toronto; the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Library; the National Library of Scotland and the Boston Public Library.Resources include books on census returns, surname origins, vital statistics, parish records, and other historical and biographical documents."Explore the books available at: http://www.archive.org/details/genealogy
