Black History Month on Fold3

Fold3 is a branch of Ancestry.com. It specifically deals with military records and the like. Since I am already a member, I can search for historical records, but it seems this month they are allowing free registration and some limited access to records pertaining to the African-American experience.

At the very bottom of the page, you will see a link to another page. You can get the basic package for FREE! If you have any interest in AA geneaology or are just a history buff, it might be worth your time to explore the site!

Heed my warning...sites like this are addictive and before you know it, you have been searching and reading things and hours have passed!

ENJOY!
