Annual Genealogy Jamboree
The Annual Genealogy Jamboree in Burbank is June 10-12. This is sponsored by Southern California Genealogical Society and is a great event. Their Jamboree Page is located here.
The San Diego Genealogical Society has a special deal with a train trip to Burbank and back to San Diego. There is a special deal on hotel reservations in Burbank. You can get the application form here. Hurry because pre-registration ends this Saturday, April 30.
SDGS is going to have a booth at Jamboree. We will have genealogy related used books for sale. This has been a very successful event for SDGS in past years. I have seen some of the titles that are going to be available for sale and they look good. I will post some of the titles later.

Danish Archives
I just saw a message on the Danish message list at Rootsweb that the Danish Archives no longer requires a log in.
In the past a user had to create an account and log in each time you accessed the site. No More!
The Danish Archives Online, arkivalieronline.dk, offers images of the parish record books and national censuses. An excellent resource for research.
Of course it helps to be able to sort of read the old Danish text and script.
