School Yearbooks Something to Check Out

Ancestry.com has an expanding school yearbook collection that is worth looking at. Those books can include interesting things like nick names, interests, and even photos of your ancestors...just the type of information that helps to make your ancestors come alive.

The collection now has recently been expanded to include about 58 million additional records and spans from 1988 all the way back to 1875. It includes yearbooks from junior highs, high schools, universities and other institutions.

If you don't have an ancestry.com subscription, you can visit the library and get access to the site from there for free. Even if you don't have a subscription, you can do the search from home to see what possible matches occur.

Check it out at http://www.ancestry.com/
