Finding our links in History - One Genealogist's thoughts, tidbits, and inspirations - All very much randomly posed. One person's life does not stand-alone but interacts with family, neighbors, community, and history. Our Trees become Tangled just by living. -- T.

Thrifty Thursday: JSTOR Digital Library
JSTOR is a digital library that holds a treasure trove of primary sources, journals, and books.
Many of these, including The William & Mary Quarterly, are available free through their website. http://www.jstor.org/ offers a basic search field and an advanced search option.
I entered the surname Cassingham and found an article of interest.
This article is available for download for a fee or I can read it online at no cost by registering for a MyJSTOR account.
With an account I can have up to 3 items in my personal bookshelf for 14 days, after which I can remove the item(s) and select another one to view.
Now, with my account created, I can read the article at my leisure online for free.
http://www.jstor.org is a great site to bookmark and add to your arsenal of genealogy references.
