    3. Bettie: Regarding typing the various census - I, too, have already typed the 1850 census for Early County and currently typing the 1850 Dooly Co. I obtained my copy of the census from SK Publications. By volunteering to type the various counties, you receive a copy of the actual census pages in book form from SK Publications. The books I have received are very clear and relatively easy to read. Occasionally you will come across a name that is hard to figure out but if you read on down the page, you will usually find another family by the same name that is written more clearly. I would urge everyone to volunteer to transcribe for the USGENWEB Census Project, receive a free copy of the census and you can then post on both web sites. Just my opinion but believe it would be of benefit to lots more people if posted on both web sites. Ida
