US GenwebThis volunteer-driven website has grown astronomically since 1996, when it first began. The information and depth varies for each county as volunteers maintain each county website. Some counties have managed to transcribe most of their county records, some have indexes available, all have people willing to do lookups, and all have a query section. An outstanding site!
