Research & Resources
Share your favorite genealogy resources. If you have collected GUTHRIE research for any location around the world that can be shared with your extended family of long lost cousins, please do so. No single person can review every resource in existence. There is no need to reinvent the wheel when we can collaborate as a family work group to solve some mysteries. Add your pieces of the family puzzle. Please cite your sources.
