Insider tip: try the mirror site at http://www.usgenweb.org/census/ At this time, the mirror is current. I don't know if that will always be so. (And as Milo says, the regular site may be back up any time now.) Karen -- Your message was: (from "Milo Sutton") Those who attempted to reach the GenWeb US Census page I recommended probably didn't reach them. It's been pointed out that most, if not all, of USGenWeb's huge project is down. I haven't been able to reach any of GenWeb sites I tried, including this one: URL: http://www.usgenweb.com/census/ Although I get the same message as those who wrote to me, I think GenWeb will be up and running soon. It's such a huge volunteer project that I don't think this is a fatal situation. Just keep trying .... and keep your fingers crossed!
