Many years ago, I had a bajillion bookmarks saved in my browser.  I got a new computer and lost all my bookmarks.  I started over, but was smart and saved them in an online bookmark tool.  That tool changed to a paid model that was also spam and changed all my bookmarks to point to paid sites where they would get a cut.  I started over, but this time kept them in a Word doc of my own saved on my computer and accessible via DropBox.

It still lives there, but before joining this CGS blog, I wasn’t doing much genealogy searching and so it was dusty and with broken threads all over it.  I used Claude (AI) to shore it up and remove the dust and fix the broken threads.

It’s not a pretty document, but it’s my personal genealogy toolbox.  I’m happy to share my toolbox, but I do encourage you to make your own of your favorites that you need to go back to.
