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.
