Register Your Surnames

One of the best acknowledged ways of using the internet to find out more about your family is to use the Web as a bulletin board by registering your family surnames.

Many genealogists are not just looking for details on their families, they also hope to make connections with other researchers and family members. Register your surnames and have other researchers find you.

Don't forget to search these same places to see if someone has already registered your surnames. Your distant cousins are just waiting to be found! You can Search for Researchers here.

Some of the following registries require a webpage which is noted. Webpages can be easily created using your favorite genealogy software. For instructions, go to How to Create a Genealogy WebPage
