Origins.net have relaunched their Origin Search as from January 2003. Using a powerful search engine Origins are now offering
Origins offers a very impressive search facility with its newly upgraded Origin Search
100,000 million extra names, taking the grand total of those to be searched to nearly half a billion. The Origin index now includes the following names: USA: 248m UK and Ireland:21m Canada: 14.5m Europe: 19.2m Australasia: 3.4m Unclassified: 128m
Origins links to English Origins (in association with the Society of Genealogists) Scots Origins and Irish Origins. The new search facility is designed specifically for family history research so does not throw up any old reference. The results of tests at the GWG were very encouraging.
The Origins site is clear and straightforward. Apart from the links to the sites listed above there are several articles of interest to read and a useful introduction to tracing your family history.
The search facility does carry a charge: $5 for 24 hours and $15 for 14 days.
