Table of Contents

his Table of Contents is organized around (1) an alphanumeric index designed to facilitate your search for information in YOUR HISTORY ONLINE's Database concerning specific individuals, historical events, organizations according to the year each occured; and (2) the contents of the various sections divided into specific time periods to aid your browsing the Web site and locating data on each event, person, topic, organization, etc. in YOUR HISTORY ONLINE's Database. To access historical events, etc. selected from the Index, simply click on the appropriate Major Section Heading or Time Period. If you are using Netscape 4.7 or 7.1 or Internet Explorer 6.0 as your browser, once you open any of the Major Sections, you can access information by clicking on the "Edit menu," choosing "Find in Page" or "Find (on this page)" and typing in an individual's name, a place name, a city or state or country, a topic, event, etc., provided that information is contained in the Section you have called up. 

Information included for persons, events or topics by Time Period should be explored fully, i.e., each year cited in the Index, to receive complete biographical or historical information. The dates for locating information included in the "Your History Graphics" series are clearly referenced within parentheses. You will also note that these graphic images are placed randomly. Information referring to other illustrations, maps, tables and figures are NOT found in the Index.
