London Picture Map - Think of the map as Google Street
View for vintage London. You can click on the map to view historical images of
particular buildings, streets or areas, or search the collection by topic to
reveal everything from historic coffee houses to buildings associated with
different authors or time periods. (http://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/tour-london-yore-gigantic-new-photo-map-180959955/#bjTHcgZVseAJhfrf.99)

Episcopal Diocese of Utah Database of
Indexed Parish Records
(no longer functioning parishes) (.xls file) – covers 1870-1975
Editor’s Note: As of
today, each of the above links worked.
Now, whether the links in any of the identified articles work, I cannot
vouch for that. And, armed with the
information provided, it should be relatively easy to get to determine where
the discussed database currently resides.
If you get really stuck, drop me an email and I’ll try to ferret out the
recalcitrant link or cross out my entry in the above list!
Editor’s Note: Know
of a neat resource that you think might be a hidden gem? Drop an email to UpFront@ngsgenealogy.org.
