I don't recall what time period your PA research involves, but have some
suggestions.

The Pennsylvania Archives does have at least one database to search
(look for their site by doing a search through Google.com).

There is another genealogical Web site that offers searches which
include some early Pennsylvania archives. You can see little snippets
of the hits, but need to have a membership in order to open the document
for full view and print. Still worth seeing the snippets!

If your search involves the colonial period, the Godfrey Library in
Connecticut has databases that you can search online by simply going to
their Web site (search through Google.com, but I think it is
http://www.godfrey.org) and paying for an annual membership with a
credit card. I believe the annual fee is $35. One of their very
valuable databases is Early American Newspapers.

I don't have a subscription currently, but expect to again.

Subject: [MAWORCES] I am impressed!


I just joined this list last evening and presented my question. The
response has been quick and very helpful. Thanks to all those who
helped me
find that what I found on One World Tree was incorrect information. Now
I
wish I did have an ancestor from that area as I see that I would get
alot of
help.

Thanks to all,
