This site, Ancestry.com is best known for its enhanced
US Federal census images and indexes. The images are the clearest I've seen. You can search the indexes for
free, but to see the the images you must pay a fee.

This site displays millions of vital records, hundreds of thousands of Census indexes and images, military records, cemetery records, bible records, church and parish records,
court records, obituaries, wills, and family histories. It's all FREE! Don't be confused by the RootsWeb heading on the page.
USGenWeb.org
is only hosted by Rootsweb and is an entirely different database. Searching is not quite as easy as on other sites, however, the data is growing regularly
because of the all volunteer efforts which extract and upload the data.

All data at FamilySearch.org is FREE. Searching is easy.
In my opinion it has the most marriage records on the web and the best every name 1880 US Federal Census Index,
1881 British and Canadian census. Also many international genealogies
are searchable at FamilySearch.org.

Origins.net is a fee based site that gives some free searches. It is mostly vital records from the UK, Ireland, and Scotland.

Burke's Peerage and Gentry is one of the oldest sources of royal pedigrees in print form. This is a fee based site; but if you have tapped into
royal lines, it would be worthwhile to subscribe.
