GeneaSearch: Find Your Female Ancestors

GeneaSearch has an interesting feature and search tool called Find Your Female Ancestors.

Female ancestors are often hard to find. Because of name changes and lost marriage records, it is often difficult, if not impossible, to find our female ancestors’ lineage. Here you will find a free genealogy database containing female ancestors submitted by visitors to help find your female ancestors and surnames. You are invited to post information about your female ancestors on the form at the bottom of this page.

Visitors who are looking for female ancestors, and not finding any in their online database, can leave information in an easy-to-use form about their female ancestor. You are encouraged to provide as much information as possible to help future searchers make a connection with your missing female ancestor.

Of course, like all such self-generating databases, the more people who enter information on their female ancestors, the more likely you are to find your missing female ancestor.
