Robert,

It is always great to hear good news.

Have you checked the free Rootsweb.com for the family name you are 
researching.
Another free place were people share their trees is on the Pedigree Resource 
File at the FamilySearch.org website.
Some people duplicate their records (and errors...) on other websites.
I have had luck at both of the above websites.
