Index of Subjects Dear Carroll, For available Chebucto Services, may I suggest you consult: http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/services.shtml And, also consider viewing any genealogical websites on http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/Heritage/heritage2.shtml such as http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/Heritage/NGB/index.html The Newfoundland Grand Banks database should provide some format ideas. There are a number of contact e-addresses near the bottom of the page who you may want to contact for the pros and cons of setting up a db. Their db is quite large so the folk there hopefully can advise you of possible pitfalls.
