I stumbled across a site that’s not only a great reference for those new to research, it also tells the story of an 18th century herbalist/mid-wife. The site is DoHistory.Org and it’s definitely worth a look. A collaborative project by The Film Study Center at Harvard University and hosted by George Mason University, the History Toolkit on the site is chock-full of helpful information for researchers including information on how to search deeds and how to read a cemetery.
In other news, more updates are coming soon, including the oft delayed photography tips!
