7. Upcoming Events
Find out about upcoming Highland Games: Glengarry Highland Games' Homepage

8. Family Newsletters
You can find some family newsletters, such as: Elder Family Newsletter. If you can't find one in which you are interested, then perhaps you should get yourself some Web space and start one.

9. Family Newsletters
You might find family histories (some post their ancestral lists or even a descendants' list). For clan histories you might try such as Clan: Hunter of Hunterston; Clan Farquharson; Clan Farquharson Page; Clan Farquharson; Farquharson; The Clan Farquharson. Or you can look up generally about The Clans of Scotland shown on a map; Clans menu, Scottish Clans and Families; The Gathering of the Clans; etc.

10. Helpful information and addresses
While browsing around the newsgroup "alt.genealogy" I found a list of the addresses and cost for each of the County clerks in Michigan. Click here to see the list.

11. Recently added Web Pages
To see a list of some 1200-1700 URLs added in the past day or search the last 7 days of URL annoucements.

12. E-mail relatives & friends
To find E-mail addresses [hopefully current] for persons you may know or have known, or to find persons with surnames which interest you, there are several places you could search, including InfoSpace. Also you might try such as Yahoo! People Search - Email

13. Addresses, telephone numbers, etc.
To find telephone numbers, addresses, etc. you can check on-line telephone listings for Canada, one search for all the country; U.S.A., also one search for the whole country. Other countries have different set-ups, such as Australia, where you search by each state and within each state search by the capital region and/or by the area outside the capital region - and be sure to wait for the whole list. (There are other countries with listings available on-line.)
Also you might try such as Yahoo! People Search (appears to be USA)

14. Some of these search engines have really developed, no longer showing just name, address, telephone number, Email address. Now InfoSpace bills itself as InfoSpace - The Ultimate Directory and offers many things, such as Business URLs, Phone & Address (Canada?),   Business by Name (Canada),   Fax Numbers (Canada),   ??? FAQ ???,   Fax Numbers,   The Most Innovative Directory on the Internet,   Email,   Toll-Free Numbers (USA),   Apartment Locator,   Government: Federal,   Government: Municipal,   Government: State.   Comics,   Frequently Asked Questions,   Fax Numbers,   Personalized Email,   About InfoSpace,   The Most Innovative Directory on the Internet,   Job Opportunities,   My Town,   InfoSpace Partner Programs,   Phone & Address,   Submit Your Page - Web Page Submission Form,   Traffic Reports,   Weather & Ski Information,   Greeting Cards Main Card Index - Outpost Network [by snail mail, for a fee], and The Online Community
