Our ancestors and forebears did not live in isolation of the social, economic, and political stability or instability of their global communities.

Whether you are researching your own ancestry, conducting a specific study or piece of research relating to One-Place Studies, One-Name Studies or focusing on a related topic, we encounter a great many websites and other online mediums that deserve sharing wider.

Over the last fifteen years or so, as I begin a new notebook, an early page is one with the heading of Books and URLs. As I finish each page, a new one is established on the next available page, therefore these pages are at random points throughout the notebook. This is where I note websites and books that I want to explore or read to see if they offer any material relevant to my genealogical research, or if the book is a delightful opportunity of escapism.

On each Wednesday throughout 2024, starting tomorrow, I will be sharing a post about one of these websites or resources. In their own way, they may be a delightful read, a creative website or resource for research.
