Search Genealogy - Personal History at National Archives
July 17th, 2006
The National Archives hosts this excellent “Genealogy / Personal History” search
page in the Access to Archival Databases
(AAD) section of the their site. You can search each one of these 16 databases separately,
or you can search them all at once using their search form on this page. I found several
members of my family searching some of the databases here.
