New Pages and Updates - Part I

It's been a year since I've posted updates. I have done a lot of work this past year, but realized that I had not notified my readers via this blog about them. Two most notable changes: the Eve N Don directory site not only changed its name to Don's List after his wife Eve passed away, it also changed its URL (web address). It took quite a bit of time for me to make the appropriate changes to this site. The second change was when the BYU Digital Books site changed to FamilySearch Books. I'm not done changing all those links. Meantime, you can check them out at FamilySearch Books and do a search for "directory." Additionally, the site Old Directory Search is now offline. I've started to remove some of the dead links, but again, have not gotten to all of them.

KY, NYC, ONT, and Other Pages' Updated, Corrected, and Removed Links

Although it has been a while since I posted an update on this blog, I did do some work on the site over the summer. In late summer, I started having shoulder pain which, along with the busy-ness of the start of the school year (I work for a school district), prevented me from doing much work during the fall. I had rotator cuff surgery just before Christmas, and am now healed up enough to get back to working on the site.

My main focus lately has been to completely update the New York City page. I have a long list of links that need to be added to this page from almost a dozen resources. Additionally, the Brooklyn Genealogy Information Page site changed to a new website hosted by genealogist Steve Morse. Unfortunately, not all the directories that were available on the old site can be viewed on the new site. Until corrections are made, I have removed links to those directories at the BGIP site that bring up error messages.

Here are a list of the updates, corrections, and removals from the site since August 2013:

FAQs - one new link

Resources - three new links

Jefferson Co., Kentucky - removed 1859 Louisville link from KentuckyCityDirectories; site is offline

New York City, New York - 22 new links from Ancestry; corrected six links, removed one, and added 9 from Don's list; nine new links, five corrected ones, and five removed ones from the new Brooklyn Genealogy Information Page website
