Family history research is a major interest of millions of people in the United States today. This web site provides access to a growing collection of digital Virginia Beach/Princess Anne County archival information, links to major genealogical web sites for those researching in other geographical areas.
Complimenting the web site is the Virginia Beach Public Library's collection of genealogical books and electronic resources such as Family Tree Maker software at the Central Library, maps, microfilm, videotapes, and audio tapes spread throughout the library system.
Library staff will assist researchers in developing research strategies to learn about their families. They do not develop family trees for individuals.
To assist you in navigating this web site, you will find a site map, a text-based, left navigation area, and breadcrumb navigation in pages at the third or fourth level of the overall web site organization.
The site map function as a visual aid in detecting the overall organization of the site. In addition, the site map acts as a quick browsing tool for the user.
The left navigation neatly links web site users to the major category pages and outstanding genealogical web links.
The breadcrumb navigation creates a trail to help you find your way back home. It is a textual representation of where and how information is located within the web site. It allows a web site user to link to major categories of information along a continuum of sequential order. For example, the breadcrumb path for the 1953 photograph of the Cavalier Hotel is: Historic Hotels & Attractions> Cavalier Hotel> Cavalier 1953
