Usually, through links to links to links, generally FR user names. In some cases, even from discontinued accounts (such a search works if one knows how).

Interesting.

I like utilizing the "new prototype" for the members list at my state locale.

It's always cool to know where my fellow FReople are from.

One web page comprised entirely of links to ... "The following is a massive collection of the literature and documents which were most relevant to the colonists' lives in America. If it isn't here, it probably is not available online anywhere."

The American Colonist's Library
A TREASURY OF PRIMARY DOCUMENTS
Primary Source Documents Pertaining to Early American History

OK, I do a lot of music-related research (i.e. copyright, etc.).
My favorite and/or most-used links:

Lester S. Levy Collection of Sheet Music at Johns Hopkins University

ASCAP's ACE Search - Song Titles, Composers, Publishers

BMI'S Repertoire Search

SESAC'S Repertory Search

SPEBSQSA Old Songs Library has one of the greatest sheet music libraries in the country.

Hi there friend. Was just talking about you last week. Our friend NorthCoastConservative has moved from NE Ohio to Pa “on the farm” (sound familiar?).

Of course he will remain a Brown’s fan!!!!

Surely hope you & yours are doing well on your farm
