Will of William Brock - Researching Families

Will of William Brock - Researching Families:

This is a Google site with the Will of William Brock. I think he is in my file as: William Potter Brock.

The person who shared this Will makes good use of Google Sites to share genealogy information.

BTW, I have also experimented with Google Sites and the Monroe County Chapter of the Ohio Genealogical Society also uses Google Sites to share some of their information and to advertise their products that an be purchased via PayPal. I am a member of the Monroe chapter.

MONROE COUNTY CHAPTER of the OHIO GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY

MONROE COUNTY CHAPTER of the OHIO GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY:

This is the Google site for the chapter.  On the Google site you can find a list and descriptions of publications that are available for purchase via mail or online via PayPal. On the homepage there is a link to the chapter's page on Facebook.

As of Jan 2018, the chapter's "free" website, hosted on RootsWeb by Ancestry, is down because of a security issue on RootsWeb. At this time, 28 Jan 2018, there is no projected date for the resolution of the problem.

The Spirit of Democracy at the Library of Congress

The Spirit of Democracy

Chronicling America at The Library of Congress

This is a link to the digital newspaper archive at The Library of Congress.

The Spirit of Democracy was published once a week at Woodsfield, Monroe Co., OH. I think publication ran from 1844-1994. However, it looks like only the issues from 1844-1886 are available at The Library of Congress.

Noted Monroe county genealogy researcher, Catharine (Foreaker) Fedorchak, wrote a weekly genealogy column that appeared in this newspaper. Many volumes of her work, have been published by the Monroe County Chapter of the Ohio Genealogical Society, and are still available from the society.
