The Pennsylvania Civil War website is full of great information. Regimental rosters and histories, POW information and regimental death lists are just wonderful genealogy tools. This website also has diaries, letters and newspaper articles that are pretty interestering.
Information is sorted by county and regiments so searching is pretty easy. If you have any Pennsylvania ancestors that lived during the civil war period it's well worth a look! Check it out at http://www.pacivilwar.com/

I have found the Pennsylvania Genealogy Website full of great free information on my Pennsylvania Ancestors. This website will take you to other websites but is very helpful if any of your family actually came from Pennsylvania.
There is history, census records, court records, military records, wills, newspapers articles, etc. All kinds of information that all genealogist search for but focuses on Pennsylvania genealogy.
Just lots of free Pennsylvania search information on one page. Check it out at http://www.pennsylvaniagenealogy.org/
Native American Nations is a website dedicated to helping people in their genealogy quest who have American Indian Ancestors. It is a website full of interesting information covering several different tribes. Native American Nations provides information on rolls, treaties, history and census.
There are sections with photographs that are quite interesting. Many of the laws that were created and enforced in several US States are available to educate you.
If you do have Native American Ancestors this website has many free resources to check out at http://www.nanations.com/.
I do not have Native American ancestors, however, I did stumble across this site and found it quite interesting.
Sometimes Genealogy can be mind numbing. Just when you think your are progressing beyond your own expectations you hit a brick wall. On the other hand you usually find the best information in totally unexpected places.
When you do come across those brick walls it's best to walk away, go on to something different for awhile then go back to it. It does get more thank a little frustrating!
Check out this music video by Ray Stevens, it's fun and a not so far fetched as you first might think. It will help clear your head of your own problems for awhile. I believe he's experienced a few brick walls in his own research of his ancestry to be able to come up with this one.
Online Searchable Death Indexes and Records is another free genealogy website. You can search death records and death indexes in all 50 states.
Other genealogy searches on this website include obituaries & death notices and cemetery and burial records.
This website is the type that has lots of click-able topics that will take you to another website. I found it quite frustrating to click on something interesting only to end up on Ancestry over and over again. I did find lots of information on this website, I’m just not a big fan of Ancestry. You just have to take you time and weed through it for the best results.
The Searchable Death Indexes and Records website can be located at this web address: http://www.deathindexes.com/
