If you didn't know, October is Family History Month. To celebrate, Free Genealogy Resources is offering visitors to the blog a freebie. From now through the end of October, I will research one of your ancestors in Heritage Quest.
For those not familiar with Heritage Quest, according to ProQuest, it is "a comprehensive treasury of American genealogical sources—rich in unique primary sources, local and family histories, and finding aids." It includes US Census records from 1790 to 1930, digitized genealogy and local history books, the Periodical Sources Index (PERSI), Revolutionary War records, Freedman's Bank record and the LexisNexs US Serial Set.
To get your free lookup, click on the Contact link at the top of the page and fill out the form to send me an email with your information. Please provide as much information as possible, especially if the individual has a common name. The more information you give, the better chance I have of locating the individual. Requests are limited to one per person and will be fulfilled in the order received.
Results will be delivered to the email provided as a PDF file. If you don't have a PDF reader, you can download Adobe Reader for free. If I am unable to locate your ancestor, I will advise you of this via email.
