Many databases online are free to search. Some are completely free. Some will return limited results and require that you subscribe for a fee in order to view the complete results or record. Some will supply you with free results, but you will have to pay to order the original source records. Some will require that you register your name and e-mail address in order to view the results. It would be cumbersome for me to list all of the free databases in this section, especially since they are already listed elsewhere on Cyndi's List under the appropriate category headings. Below you will find a brief highlight of some of the more popular free databases to get you started online.
