New Blog & Hungarian Resources

I decided to transfer my old blog from my genealogy site (which I made by hand), onto this site the other day.  This way it should be much easier to write whenever I feel like it, and without having to do a lot of HTML stuff.

Recently I decided to make a website and publish myself 'out-there' in the world, as a genealogist-for-hire.  It took a few weeks to create and finally fix all the wording and such.  My main areas of research consist of German and Hungarian research.  You should take a look at my website.. you might find me of some use to you in the near future (I hope!.. haha):


I also wanted to devote part of this entry for a list of links that I use on a continual basis for my Hungarian research.  I always seem to find myself returning to these links for help/information.  Give them a try:
