Hmm I belong to Ancestry and didn't know that. How do you reach the books online?

Hi Julia, just go to Ancestry and below it shows Family & Local History New. But you will have to actually add it on to your subscription first. Click on it and type in like Robert French in the name boxes and New Jersey in the keywords box as an example and it will give you all this listings of scanned books in their entirety, then pick a book and it will show at the top all the page numbers your Robert French or who ever is located on. You can click each page number. I was able to print just the page, etc. It is new that I added to my already yearly subscription. I think it is 80 bucks a year. You have to add it. They do let you try it out too but it will always be updated with lots of out of print books. I think you can subscribe independently to it too, not sure. Heritage Quest was not user friendly and very slow, for me and could not make it work right on Genealogy.com which I also have full subscriptions to also but MyFamily.com bought both Ancestry and Genealogy so they are all one company including Rootsweb. I really like the improvements with Ancestry.com the best. I have had it for 3 years I think. I have DSL and Windows XP and really like Family Tree Maker 11 and added the time lines, etc., so things are easy to use for me but I have no idea how others are affected by it.
