Directory to 7,003,640 Genealogical Resources

Hi all!

It's been eleven months since I've posted about Linkpendium, and
during that time we've been locating and adding an average of
about 90,000 sources of genealogical information every month.

Linkpendium now has links to 7,003,640 sources of genealogical
information. It is numerically by far the largest directory of
genealogical resources on the Internet. In fact, Linkpendium is
one of the largest human-edited directories of *any* kind on the Web.

We're kinda jazzed about breaking 7,000,000 links, though obviously
there are a lot more resources for us to find and categorize.

The links are categorized either by:
o Surnames WORLD-WIDE (6,165,025 links).
o American localities, generally county-level (838,615 links).
We do not yet provide world-wide locality coverage, though we plan
to phase in world-wide locality coverage as resources allow.

The URL is:

I consider it a useful resource. And I'm pleased that you have
gotten rid of the links to the Halstead B.S.

Unfortunately, "House of names" is still there.
Maybe they're mostly legit, but my sample of three
says otherwise.

Their "history" of Waack (east German) as English and Norman is
crap.

Their standard description of FAMILY crests instead of individual
crests is bogus.

Or is House of Names just Halstead in disguise?
