American Ancestors links:

Use this wording to search for the pages:

insource:"americanancestors.org/search" (see #1 below) if it’s already been fixed and updated, that /search won’t be there. and insource:"americanancestors.org/new-york" (see #2 below)

1. To replace specific database links, use below URL and format (wording has been changed too), but check first to make sure the named database is listed on this browse database search page: [https://www.americanancestors.org/browse-database


 * KEEP EXISTING DATABASE NAME HERE at American Ancestors by NEHGS ($).

https://www.americanancestors.org/browse-database at American Ancestors by NEHGS ($).

2. For New York counties, if there is not a specific database listed, but only https://www.americanancestors.org/new-york, use this:

New York research at American Ancestors by NEHGS.

If any link has this additional link at the end of the entry "at New York Ancestors ($)", replace with "at American Ancestors by NEHGS ($)."

3. If you see a link that has a look like this, just check to see if it works, and if it does, you can leave it alone. These links have the name of the database or article in it. They are newer links that AA has updated from old style links.

4. If the links are for The Virginia Genealogist or an article in that publication (most of those links will look something like this):

...then use this link to replace all of them: https://www.americanancestors.org/search/databasesearch/285/virginia-genealogist-the

From that link, the user can find the specific volume and article listed on our wiki page.

If any link has this additional link at the end of the entry "at New York Ancestors ($)", replace with "at American Ancestors by NEHGS ($)."
