Researchers depend on the internet but often look at only a few sites. These 10 databases are not frequently visited but should be! (These are U.S.-based databases.)
Shannon Combs-Bennett resides in Northern Virginia. From there she writes and presents on a variety of topics across the US and internationally from genetic genealogy to methodology techniques. Shannon is a Qualified Genealogist (QG) through the R
A good variety of sources that everyone can use. I was especially interested in four: BLM information; Civil War Soldiers; NARA showing documents prior to WWI; and Open Library. Thank you very much for this presentation.
A lot of guidance to information sources. I needed this!
A lot of information that I can put right to use! Thank You
A well researched for a thoughtful and informative presentation. Presented spoke clearly and slides were helpful. Thank you.
All new info for me. She explained and showed examples. Now I feel confident to dive in.
Already use most of them, and some to not apply to my research at this time, perhaps at a later time. Good information to have on hand.
Although many of these sites I was aware of, it’s great to revisit and get new tips. I really enjoyed the webinar.
Always informative! Here’s hoping for a better 2021!
Am looking forward to the Civil War one, getting mor info.
an excellent presentation and good overview of different databases.
An excellent Q&A: the questions were precise and Shannon’s answers were even more so. Much better than long-winded, circuitous explorations of limited interest.
Another amazing webinar with information for all!. I’m really appreciative of the slides and clear explanations both during the presentation and Q&A session. Thank you again for all webinars presented during 2020.
AOK here – Toronto

Great Webinar with Shannon Combs-Bennett very informative and great tips! Happy New Year Everyone!
Great! I need to check out several of these databases right away!
Her explanation and showing the opening pages was excellent and so helpful. Great voice tone.
I always enjoy learning about new research sites.
I appreciate the information on each site…most of which i have never heard of before!
I came in late but was good while I was there
I enjoyed the concise outline oriented presentation for such a broad topic. Thank you and happy new year!
I enjoyed the information about website I did not know about
I enjoyed this seminar very much. Thank you!
I found lots of great leads in the databases that Shannon listed. Good job!
I have lots of new ideas for searches!
I learned new sites to explore. Wonderful presentation.
I learned two new websites to help me with searches for the military records.
I liked that Shannon showed how to use each website and database. She gave very helpful information.
I loved that I was still able to learn about new-to-me websites.
I was unfamiliar with several websites, so very helpful in learning about some more.
I wasn’t aware of ordering post 1940 Census information. I think that will greatly help me!
Informative and the presenter kept moving forward with the subject.
Inspiring, valuable information. Very well presented. I will definitely be subscribing.
Interesting a few sites, I had not heard of before
Interesting and informative, loved the explanations on exploring each website. Very good
Interesting sites to try out.
Interesting websites
It was well-paced and the time actually really suited me here in Healesville [Melbourne], Australia. Sets my day up nicely, even though I’m on holidays from my day job :-). Great tips about the curated list…. I don’t know why I haven’t done that earlier… I just save into a folder which is messy. Even though many of the top 10 sites were culturally a bit obscure for me in Australia, I found them really helpful as genealogy is a global interest. Also, I can look for parallel sites here.
It was wonderful. Everytime I attend a webinar I learn so much more.
Learn a few things that just may help my searches.
Learned about resources that I could use but didn’t know about! Great info and presentation style.
Learned about some new databases to search, but agree about the importance of the ones that I know and use. Liked Shannon’s pace of delivery and level of information. Excellent presentation!
learned new sites!
Life is short, do genealogy first! Perfect! Thank you. Happy, healthy and peaceful 2021.
Liked it a lot.
Lots of great information! What a great way to spend my birthday in cold, gloomy upstate New York.
Lots of great websites to search that I never would have thought about using.
Love that someone broke down a brick wall DURING the webinar . . . awesome!
Loved Shannon! So easy to listen to. Great information and one of the best Webinars of this year. Thank you!
Lover it, but couldn’t write fast enought for all the information.
Many ideas. Speaker is clearly excited about what she’s discovered and what she can share. I’ve listened to multiple webinars in 2020 (thank you!) and decided to join today, since this webinar made me realize how lucky I am to be able to attend these and how much information and inspiration this speaker provided!
Many things I did not know I could find, even on familiar websites!
My first of your webinars. Likes it so much I subscribed to your service!!
My first time. I knew most of the information already but I enjoyed the webinar and will attend more.
Outstanding!
OUTSTANDING! What great information, THANK YOU
Presentation well done
Really easy to understand and follow along. Thank you.

Shannon did a superb job of explaining some of the most important databases to genealogists. I have used almost all of these, but she taught me about new areas to pursue on many of the sites.
Shannon is a fine communicator as is Jeff, of course.
Shannon is a great speaker and presenter. Spent this hour on the edge of my seat trying to take notes and refrain from leaving to soon, if only mentally! Lots to think about and places to go check out. A great finish to the year and a great place to start for the next.
Shannon is great. I always hope to pick up at least one new piece of advise or information. This was at least 10fold. Thank you, thank you!
Shannon provided a lot of useful information on those websites. She gave me ideas to pursue.
Shannon was a good speaker and presented some new websites I haven’t used before. Great information!

Thank you.
The best Webinar I have attended.
the copied websites in the presentation were blurry and too small to read in some cases.
The presenter appears very knowledgeable but the databases being discussed are not relevant to my current research.
There was new information and it covered databases which are not the common ones. Also it updated information on old favorites.
There was some new information for me about how to research my family history, particularly about immigration and citizenship records.
There was something for everyone. I was really happy it wasn’t Eurocentric. Thank you so much!
This was a nice intro webinar to some websites that I had not known about.
This was great! I occasionally look at those great databases and promise myself to come back and look! Thank you for reminding me!
This was interesting, but I’m not sure how useful I will find it.
This was my first live webinar with Legacy. Looking forward to more!
This was my first seminar and I was very impressed. The seminar was very excellent and I am looking forward to viewing her library collection on this website. 🙂
This was very good and informative.
This, for me, was the best webinar I have watched so far. Shannon Combs-Bennet was awesome – truly! I have done genealogy for a long time but I learned so very much from this webinar. Thank you!
Though I was very familiar with most of her websites, I had not visited the slavery one in a long time and while listening I searched and found an instant hit on relative in Tennessee (score!) I also now intend to look more closely at the census site. Thank you!
Tons of great information!
Very clear and followable. Well done.
Very clear directions and information. Have plans to use sites presented. Thank you
Very comprehensive and loved the example.
Very easy to understand – a bit too rushed though.

Wonderful! I going right to her list of webinars to learn more to help with my Virginia brick wall relative
Would never have even thought to use these sights! Grateful she not only gave the “initials” to each sight — but what the initials stood for!!!
Wow! This webinar was loaded with a lot of really valuable information and went faster than I could take notes! Thank goodness for the handout. I’ll be looking for more of Shannon’s webinars in the vault. Thanks again!

Though I was very familiar with most of her websites, I had not visited the slavery one in a long time and while listening I searched and found an instant hit on relative in Tennessee (score!) I also now intend to look more closely at the census site. Thank you!
Tons of great information!
Very clear and followable. Well done.
Very clear directions and information. Have plans to use sites presented. Thank you

Very easy to understand – a bit too rushed though.

Wonderful webinar on using databases that we as genealogists should be using.
Wonderful! I going right to her list of webinars to learn more to help with my Virginia brick wall relative
Would never have even thought to use these sights! Grateful she not only gave the “initials” to each sight — but what the initials stood for!!!
Wow! This webinar was loaded with a lot of really valuable information and went faster than I could take notes! Thank goodness for the handout. I’ll be looking for more of Shannon’s webinars in the vault. Thanks again!
