It’s really a math website, but it will do a variety of things that a genealogist might find helpful, including:
- Calculate the days between two dates–sample.
- Specific number of years, months, and days before a certain date–sample.
- Specific number of years, months, and days after a certain date–sample.
- What day of week a date was on (and other historical facts about that date)–sample.
- When a holiday was in a certain year–sample.
- Popularity and other information about a first name–sample. Doesn’t work so well with unusual names.
- Popularity and other information about a last name–sample. Doesn’t work so well with unusual names.
- Information on a town in a specific state–sample.
- Geographic conversions–sample. (Google’s good at these too)
- Cousinship questions–sample. Their chart isn’t the best, but it gives an idea. Here’s a better question.
There are other things you may find helpful on WolframAlpha.com as well–including math stuff!
