• GENEALOGIES
  In previous genealogy updates we have linked only the genealogy page and left if up to you to find the genealogy in which you were interested. That would by via this link: SEE IT
  
  Now and hereafter, because that page has become so large and complex, the updates will be linked to the individual genealogies. The AAFA effort at present is to get as many genealogies as possible, regardless of their condition, on the website. Once they are all posted then we will begin the first cycle of updates to all genealogies that need it.

Links from the two places will take viewers to different pages.
