Stevenson Genealogy
This is my favorite place to order supplies. They offer a wonderful newsletter each month with helpful tips. When I was just beginning I wanted a 15 Generation chart, and had no clue as to where I needed to look for them. I found them here, and when I ordered, and received my package, one of the owners sent me a little note, wishing me luck on my research. It was so nice to have that, and for all of my needs I come here.
Over the years I have collected memorabilia from various relatives, and Stevenson's Genealogy has various size page protectors, for photos, funeral notices, and paper items that need to be preserved.
Click on the link above and you will be taken to their site, I have also added their free forms to my sidebar. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. If you have questions, they are also a great source to ask.
This is for the genealogist in all of us. I'm not a professional researcher, but I do have great passion for helping anyone who seeks their family's history. If you're alive, your family has a past. If you don't know where to find the dirt, I can help you dig. ~Tracy~

Find A Grave
seeing as how i dont get a chance to volunteer or help out with charities that really inspire me, I have been thinking of something to do to give back. I just happened to be working on a little research for my genealogy, and came across this little website, its nothing fancy, but it has 34million grave site photos. http://www.findagrave.com I am soon going to be walking the local cemeteries and taking photos.. Great exercise, great nature walks, and plenty of photos in the hopes of helping out my fellow genealogists. Usually when you have a person to research, you find their last known whereabouts, i.e. their grave. A photo is worth a thousand words, and in this case, a date of birth or a year, etc. If you are like me, and have just a few spare hours, or several to spare and want to get out and about, take your camera to the nearest cemetery and take photos, then upload them to the site. Also, if you need a photo, you can download it, and have it as your own, there are even celebrities listed there.
