A. That could depend on the surnames you are working on, the more unusual the better, So for a start try Google then Google News and Archive, if you want family history sites in general then the best is but this is a subscription site but it is one of the best, you might just be able to use it at your local library, Then there is http:labs.familysearch.or g and They are free to use and can be helpful, please remember one thing when ever possible double check with the original source. Hope this helps
