Family Search
Compiled by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, this resource encourages "all people to find their ancestors and preserve their family histories. To help in this great pursuit, the Church has been actively gathering and preserving genealogical records worldwide for over 100 years...and is not limited by culture, ethnicity or religious faith."

U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) Genealogy
"The National Archives offers insight into the lives of people, their families and our history. Because the records at the National Archives come from every branch of the Federal government, almost all Americans can find themselves, their ancestors, or their community in the archives."
