I while back, a asked for information on genealogy programs.  I got
many helpful answers, and am now well on my way to digging up my
family ancestry.  To those who might want the same information, there
is a file on a bitnet listserv / internet ftp site that is may be
helpful.

To get the note, I recommend mailing the listserv at one of the
following addresses:

BITNET:		LISTSERV@NDSUVM1
Internet:	LISTSERV@vm1.nodak.edu
Usenet:		...!uunet!plains!vm1.nodak.edu!listserv

E-mail consists of the line:

GET FAQ 0004

If you want a complete index of what is available, try

INDEX ROOTS-L

These files are accessable by ftp at the internet site above.
The listserv is fast, though, and can generally send you a
number of files at once.

Another fine source of help is the newsgroup soc.roots,
or try the mailing list ROOTS-L, available from the above
address by sending email with the line

SUB ROOTS-L <your name>

Good luck with your searches!
