I have been researching my own family history for over 40 years, and helped a few others out along the way. At this website I am making available some of the data I have used along the way. This is primarily out of copyright books which have a historical or genealogical bent. I am scanning these books in and making the text available as a search tool. You also have the opportunity to buy an electronic copy (as a PDF) of the original book.

At the top of the page you will see some menu items.The first one about tells you a little more about me and this website. The second Books for Sale tells you about the books, photographs and maps both real and electronic I have for sale. The third Data Lookup lets you search for items within my collection for free. This will be an ever expanding section. If you want to know about new items as they are added then check update notification (together with your email address) in the newsletter section in the bottom left corner. The fourth menu item is all about the subject of Genealogy and will also be an ever expanding section. The fifth menu item takes you to my hobby of photography (at my personal web site) where you can find pointers to my photos.

There is a login/regsiter box at the left. You will need to register (for free) to access so some of the free search data.Please browse around and feel free to drop any comments. If you are registered and logged in then in the bottom left corner is a contact box  where you can send messages to me.
