Cyndi's
List of Genealogy Sites on the Internet |
As far as
I know, this is the largest collection of genealogy-related links
on the web. It is very nicely organized in categories and constantly
updated. A great starting point for research. |
| The Genealogy Home Page |
Another excellent,
comprehensive collection of links. |
| A Barrel of Genealogy
Links |
Still another
fine group of links. |
| Genealogy Gateway to the Web |
A very comprehensive
set of genealogy links. |
| FamilyTreeMaker.com |
A wide-ranging
resource for online genealogy, including message boards, advice,
and, for a fee, a superb online library of genealogical resources,
including rare books and articles. |
| FamilySearch Internet Genealogy
Service |
The search
gateway to the massive Latter Day Saints genealogy database;
an excellent place to search for names of ancestors. |
| Notable Women Ancestors |
An excellent
site established to tell the stories of women ancestors who are
notable for their accomplishments in particular fields or for
the examples they set as individuals. I include this site here
particularly because Elizabeth Hooton,
a Strawbridge ancestor, has her own page at this site under "Religious
Leaders." |
| History
of the Strawbridges from Northwestern Pennsylvania |
An excellent
family web site with a self-explanatory title. As of now, there
are no known links between these Strawbridges and the Eastern
Pennsylvania and Maryland ones discussed here. |
| Strawbridge Web Page of
Matthew Strawbridge |
An interesting
site created by a Strawbridge from England, with some fine discussion
of the origins of the Strawbridge name. |
| Cecil County Historical Society |
The historical
society of Cecil County, Maryland, where the early Strawbridges
lived. This site has some research aids and other useful information. |

Van Sise Genealogy Forum |
A genealogy.com forum
about the Van Sises, one of whom married George Strawbridge,
1814-1862. |

Maris Genealogy Home Page |
An excellent
site with information about the Marises, who were ancestors of
John Welsh, the father-in-law of one of the George Strawbridges. |

| Strawbridge

| Bookfinder.com |
This is an
excellent commercial site that lets you search for, and purchase,
used and out-of-print books. I have found several excellent books
of family history through this and similar sites. Try searching
for your family name as part of a book title and see what turns
up. |
| Library of Congress
American Memory Search |
This site
lets you enter search terms to locate full-text documents in
the Library of Congress's growing collection of on-line items.
For example, if you enter the search terms "Gilpin Washington,"
you will discover numerous letters between George Washington
and one of the Gilpins. There also are some letters between Thomas
Jefferson and a Gilpin. There undoubtedly are other items of
interest to various Strawbridge relatives. |
