You will find below the 'hot links' to the sites mentioned in the relevant issues of Connections, the journal of the Quebec Family History Society. The full text describing the links and the reason they are of interest to genealogists appear in the journal. The links are listed here simply as a service to members so they can click on the ones of interest rather than having to type them. The paragraph titles are the same and appear in the same order as in Connections.
NOTE: Web addresses may change between the time they are published in Connections and the time you see them here. If a site has disappeared, try starting from the root of the site or try searching for it in Google.
