AncestryPlus is a great place to start or continue your search for your family history via an extensive collection of public documents. It is simple to use and you do not need a lot of information to start. Some of the searchable material includes: Census Records from 1940 back to 1790, newspapers and obituaries, DAR lineage books and military records. Many images of actual records can be printed and/or sent to your email.
