Where would I search next?

I had an interesting time yesterday following my own advice. To explain a little, I often teach about Google.com and encourage those in my classes to "look for each name in your pedigree" (quoting myself). So I was sitting in the Mesa FamilySearch Library helping a patron and getting pretty much no where. So I started picking names off of the hand-written pedigree chart she was compiling and looking each one up in a Google search. Within a few minutes, I found a lengthy history of her family over five generations in a small county in Arkansas. She was amazed and I was just as amazed. Actually, she was practically in tears.

So where would I search next? Or first or where ever? How about Google searches on the names in your database? Try searching for the surname + the location, the complete name in quotations (to force a string search for just that set of characters), and then search for combinations of names; husbands and wives, parents and children etc. Who knows what you might find and its free (or as free as anything on the Internet is free).
