As we honor the memory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. , I’d like to share  five fabulous websites for African-American genealogical research. Each has a wealth of information and links and all are free.

1. Black Past – The home page has a list of links to other resources.

2. Legacy Family Tree – 7 Resources for African-American Genealogy Research

3. International African-American Museum – Check out the Center for Family History tab on the home page

4. FamilySearch – African American Genealogy Records

5. Library of Congress – African-American Genealogy Resources
