National Archives

The National Archives Records Administration publishes Prologue Magazine, both in print form for $20 a year and some articles free online, with genealogical articles, as well as links to records housed around the country, in regional archives and even presidental libraries. You can check them out online at www.archives.gov/publications/prologue

Links in the "Genealogy Notes" are divided into 14 sections, including African American sources, Immigration, WWI and WWII, Spanish- American War and the Civil War. Many of these databases help you in your family history research and offer you tips in obtaining full records, when available and when needed.
