There are a lot of usefulsites out there- Free bmd on rootsweb, 1837 online, which charges a fee and can be difficult to search. If you are reading these boards you will come across LDS, IGI and family search a lot, these are all on one site run by the Mormons its free to use and has lots of info. If in doubt ask a lot of us check these boards everyday and were happy to help(It gives me something to do!!:))
