These are just my oft-used sites/pages that I have listed.  For more links to free archives, indexes and/or transcriptions, visit my Lynda's Links site.

25 April 2011 - I have just been through and checked all these links.  So many of them were changed or no longer available; so annoying.  Please do let me know if any are not working in the future.

(As a rule, only links to other sites open in new windows)

NOTE: If you're in New Zealand and you type ancestry.com or ancestry.co.uk in the web address bar at the top, you'll be automatically diverted to the .com.au site.  As the sites are laid out slightly differently, you might prefer to go to a site other than the Australian one.  At the bottom right of the homepage it will say "Ancestry.com.au" with up/down arrows to the side.  Click on these arrows and you can choose another site.
