I'm going to do the 1840 census for Walton Co--my first transcription. That is when I get my template thingey, film (ordered today), & reader. > This site contains all the census which have been transcribed.

I only found the 1830 done, 1850 is assigned, but I never did see where you were doing the 1870. I started to apply for that one, but thought I'd go for the one with my info on it. > A PROUD transcriber of Heard, Emanuel and Walton Counties in Georgia > Ray Beam (Sacramento, Ca) We're proud of you Ray! I know there's several of you that have done or are currently transcribing the census. If you would write & tell us the ease, or frustrations you had while doing them, that might help more of us become involved too. Thanks all, Momma Walton <><
