6. On an ad hoc basis, people put up websites to give the public access to their local cemeteries

and church records and such. Sometimes people will self publish all their work on a certain family tree from the local area on the internet. Sometimes it will be a local history of the area. I've left my email at at least one site and gotten a responce. They totally vary how they are built and what functions they can do. Do a google search of 'the location' genealogy. See what local resources there are and you may be able to contact others building their own family trees from your ancestors' neck of the woods.
