Tip: Create an account there. Then create a list for each repository. When u find a book u need to see add it to the list. When you get to go there you already have your ToDo list!

The way back machine has given me books as well as articles to help with genealogical research! Not everything stays on the web. People die and their website isn’t maintained. Organizations decide some material isn’t as important!

Thanks for the egg substitutes. I knew about applesauce and oil but didn’t know the others!

I’m saving the eggs I have for breakfast. There is a great article for substitutes for eggs in baking depending on what purpose the eggs serve:

It let you visually walk through the 3D tree and

MacFamilyTree used to have 3D graphs. It’s been quite a few years since I played with it but I used to put in β€˜Witnesses’ to events to use in building a network in The Master Genealogist. I’m interested in seeing what u come up with. Sorry I’m too busy to go play with this right now though.

That was my deal with my son. He made every cardboard box, throw way container, and cone thread spools into something besides all the artwork from school. We kept the photos of everything.
