Finding Your Ancestors with Surname Mapping
You can use surname mapping to show the distribution of a surname across a given area. This can help you locate where a surname is found and its frequency, which in turn helps you to find clues and focus your research.

Create an Interactive Book to Share Your Research with Your Family
I wanted to share my family research with family members in manner that would interest them. I prepared an interactive electronic book for my sister and my cousins as a Christmas gift that they could view on their computers. The contents were a set of pages, one for each direct ancestral couple in our tree, with links to pictures, articles, maps, and movies that documented the lives and experiences of each couple. I will show example pages and explain how they were created.
