Wow, what an incredible resource! I just love your cross-references. That's so helpful. Thank you.

Ol’ Myrt here prefers the search engine at Hathi Trust. My example is a transcribed document indicating an ancestor’s “death last summer” and mentions his work as a negotiator between the government and the local indigenous population.

I'm a huge fan of the Hathi Trust as well.

Great resource. My only brick wall is my great grandfather who was born in PA. I have his parents names from his marriage record in Indiana, but I've not been able to find them and I don't have a birth on him but census records shows that his parents were both born in PA. Anyway, I'll be using these resources for sure. Thanks.
