Samoan Family Websites
While helping a friend in furthering her research. We came upon a Samoan family website. My friend was excited to see her extended family. She had no idea of this family website.
So I thought that this may be a beginning of sharing Samoan Family Websites on the Samoan Genealogy Group. These sites vary in information posted by the families themselves.
If you have a family website and would like to share it. Please share a link.

And--If any of you have called, visited or written a FHC in American or Western Samoa. Share your experience. It will greatly help others in finding information for their AIGA.

Family Search Update
Talofa,
January 22 I shared a link to the 1930 US Census online from archive.org. I also posted a video on some heads up while viewing this US Census on this site. I failed to mention that FamilySearch also has this same US Census available to view on their site. In fact they did a update on 20 Jan 2011, 8,521,754 records, index only.
