Stuff to read, if you haven't already:
The links on this table. Yes, it's Wikipedia, and they're wrong a lot of the time, but you're probably better off reading than not reading.
References:
國家語文綜合連結檢索系統-語文綜合檢索 (In Chinese, mostly) It searches the ROC Ministry of Education's databases and resources on language, which includes searching the 異體字字典
9610 書法字典 It's a calligraphy dictionary, which shows examples of written characters in some exemplary works. Be careful when using it. Sometimes they show wrong characters.
