The de kuijsten site lets you decide which countries sites you want to search your surname in. ie separately Wales, Argentina, Japan (though how they spell their scrips name I don't know. Scotland, Belgium France etc etc In fact absolutely loads of countries You can tick the boxes to see which websites you want to find a hit or just let it automatically look in every site relating to that country. Sure Rootsweb is there too. Amazing and very quick - though takes ages afterwards as you check the results of around 12 different sites!!!! depending on surname results.
