WorldVitalRecords strives to live up to their vision to be a premier place for international genealogical research. Following their first set of 11 international genealogy search collections, on 9 Feb 30 more have been added. This new set includes interfaces for Austria, Hungary, Slovakia, and Ukraine research.

This research tool is done by using Google's Co-Op service, where one can filter Google to return results only from a select list of sites. Well, folks over there miss at least to sites that provide some subtle Hungarian family history information: RadixIndex and RadixForum.

Reading Dick Eastman I notice that GenealogyBank is about to open up its subscribers-only site for a short period. And Leland Meitzler has the login/password for this offer already. Check out the Genealogy Blog post for the login info. My search a couple of minutes ago for keyword Hungary found 70,188 matching documents. The majority of them comes from GenealogyBank's Historical Newspapers collection, but there is this hefty amount of 16,971 items from their America's Obituaries database, too. The offer is good through Feb 13, 2007.
