    3. Hi all I am looking for volunteers to help transcribe Lancashire for the Freecen project. In case you don't know about it, it is on ongoing project to get the census' online FREE for the general public. Lancashire is a large county and will take quite a bit of doing when you think of the number of Census there are. A start has been made on the 1891 and 1861 Census. For the former you need access to a fiche reader or it can be done from the discs - supplied by us. For the 1861 Census nothing is needed as we will supply the discs, information and a large amount of help. There are support groups and a great deal of information available. So, if interested, please join our band and help get Lancashire on line. e-mail me at jenny@jenmike.freeserve.co.uk for further details Hope to hear from you Jenny Fylde, Preston and Chorley area co-ordinator for the Freecens project http://www.freecen.org.uk/ Helping to get the 19th century Census on line for free access by all.
