Attention those just interested in filling holes in the old family tree: For the fifth straight year, the Washington State Digital Archives has earned Family Tree Magazine’s designation as one of the “101 Best Web Sites for Tracing Your Roots.”  

 This year, it was also ranked in the “Top 10 Best Sites for Searching Locally” (versus nationally or internationally).

From the article:

“This massive digitization project boasts 80 million records, with almost 64 million of them searchable and many linked to images of the originals — birth, death and marriage records; censuses; military records; land records; naturalizations; and more.”
