Home Pages Highlighted
The "Home Pages Highlighted" section consists of new genealogy-related home pages that you, the readers of this newsletter, nominate for publication in this newsletter. While anyone may nominate any genealogy-related home page, the process seems to work best when the webmaster for a home page nominates his or her own work. Nominations are now done online at www.rootsforum.com. I will review the nominations and then will list the better ones in this newsletter. If you have recently created a new genealogy-related Web page of some sort, I would strongly suggest that you enter it at www.rootsforum.com. You may later see your home page listed in this newsletter, which is read by 40,000 or so avid genealogists.

The following is a list of some of the genealogy-related World Wide Web home pages that have recently been listed by newsletter readers at www.rootsforum.com:
