missing Web Sites

Tips for Locating Web Sites That Have Moved: "As many of you are likely aware, a big group of USGenWeb sites formerly hosted on RootsWeb.com have moved in recent months to new servers. While most of these transitions went smoothly, it is inevitable that many links and bookmarks ended up broken along the way. In particular, I've had problems locating files located on the USGenWeb Archives. Of course, these aren't the only genealogy sites to turn up a 404 page when you click on a bookmark or a search result in Google. Genealogy sites are moved or shut down every day - which can be darn frustrating when you suspect the page may have held information on your ancestor!"
