2 weeks ago I finished a project to create a spreadsheet to organize all of my U.S. federal census data accumulated over the years. I posted notices on several lists to offer a free copy to anyone who wanted one. The response was incredible! To date I have e-mailed over 800 copies. The load was so heavy that I put up a website to allow anyone to download a copy. In 6 days the site has over 13,000 hits. I knew I was tired of having my census data on paper, scattered and disorganized, but I had no idea so many others were in the same situation. Yesterday I finished a Canadian version which is ready for download. It covers the 1851-1901 censuses. The U.S. and Canadian spreadsheets were created in Microsoft Excel and to use it you will need a spreadsheet program at least as recent. If you come around my spreadsheet website at http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~minder/ you can see some screen shots of the spreadsheet, read a Frequently Asked Questions page, get information on what specific spreadsheet programs work and which don't...and download a copy.
