Work done in June 2005

(1)
I updated the front page and the map room
http://www.rootsweb.com/~dnkcen/index.html

a new section Hugh's Rough Guide to danish maps on line
http://www.rootsweb.com/~dnkcen/library/maps/index.html

http://www.rootsweb.com/~dnkcen/library/index.html
the Digital Reference Library

broken links fixed
Project Runeberg
used to come to you from LYSATOR at Linköping University in Sweden.

RootsWeb's WorldConnect Project: NORGAARD index

Karl Georg Nørgaard

Rasmus Madsen Lahn (his foster father)

http://www.google.com/search?biw=1009&hl=en&q=Olga+Elisabeth+Schj%C3%B8nning&btnG=Google+Search

I used http://www.sitemapspal.com

and after editing around line 186 it now works as it should
and we have a much improved google presence

result here http://www.rootsweb.com/~dnkcen/xml.html
which google frequently checks for updates
needs mozilla or netscape to view

(4) search "hugh watkins" in google to see my other stuff
rootsweb lists, ancestry boards boards and usenet groups
not the professor etc

(5)
future plans

I want to see
(a)
Trap-Danmark digitised


(b)
det Kongelige Postbog from 1897 on line

(much used as a place name handbook danish in archive search rooms)
I am negotiating with kb.dk
who have two copies (not in REX) but don't allow out of house scanning
because of the damage risk to book spines

(c)

Historical directories of Copenhagen and Denmark on line
about every 10 years

I visited the Lyngby headquarters of krak.dk
their museum is closed to the general public

EG
Historical Directories
Digital collection of eighteenth, nineteenth and early twentieth-century local
and trade directories from England and Wales. Provided by the University of ...

paid for by Lottery money

AND
a volunteer effort
