Web Sites of Interest

Google

www.google.co.uk 

Google is a well-know search engine, which needs no description here. There are two points that are relevant to this site.

Because this site is popular, and many other sites link to it, it is given high priority by the google search engine. In addition all searchable pages include the words "Hertfordshire Genealogy" in the page title. This means that pages on this site can usually be found very quickly by using google with the search terms "Hertfordshire Genealogy" (in quotes) and the place or family names that interest you.

There are very many web sites with historical information on Hertfordshire places and families - and whether there are any related to your interests is rather a matter of luck. However it is worth using various combinations of search terms - and if you find a gem of a Hertfordshire related historical site which is not mentioned on this web site please tell me so I can spread the good news.

Examples of its use are given in the following Tutorials

Thomas William Horwood's Birth Certificate.
