Several people have contacted me privately about what I meant by HFC "online" and who is HFC, so I thought I would answer it to the list. - It was a "Typo" I meant to say "The FHC" which is Family History Center operated by LDS [Church of Latter Day Saints}. Many of the FHC's in the USA are undergoing reorganization, and are moving to "electronized" data to make more genealogical materials available to their patrons of the FHC. Many of the FHC's have installed computers and have subscribed to groups such as Ancestry, Genealogy.com, Heritage Quest, etc. Many public libraries are moving to provide similar service. To offset costs, a small fee is charged to use the computers. I recommend contracting your local FHC and/or public library first to find out if these services are being offered, the cost, and time limit. Sorry for the confusion Lynn -- Visit my genealogy new "Updated" website: http://www.lanset.com/lingbro Researching surnames BOCHNICEK, BROD, BROZ, DVORAK, GRAHAM, PETRAN, PAZDERA, SMRCKA and more
