Julia, I recently found out that I can access HeritageQuest free with my library card. You might want to check it out as they have good ce4nsus records, books and periodicals.

Yes, I use Heritage Quest for free through my library card also, although I have been told some libraries charge a small fee, but well worth it. Heritage Quests census records are a lot more clear than Ancestry but HQ doesn't have the soundex option or just using a first name like Ancestry. I found a lot of info lurking through their books and periodicals. Things are looking up with online research :-) Joseph ----- Original Message ----- From: "Janice Lund" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, July 21, 2004 3:53 PM Subject: HeritageQuest with library card > Julia, I recently found out that I can access HeritageQuest free with my > library card.
