Hi Michelle and Everyone, All the reels for the Federal Census's are freely available on the Internet Archive. I've created finding guides to help you find the ones you want. http://Guides.DonsList.net It's not as convenient as just clicking on a link and having the right page show up. But it's fully accessible and takes just a minute or two to find what you what, once you've gotten familiar with it. FamilySearch.org provides ample information to find the correct reel and the correct page within the reel. What you need is the name of the state, the municipality, the ED number, and the reel number. You also need the sheet number and the line number within the sheet is helpful. When you go to my site, click on the year for which you want to find a reel and page, e.g. 1930. A list will appear in the upper left frame with the names of the states and links for the reels for each. The "index" links aren't live yet for 1920 and 1930 because the Internet Archive hasn't finished digitizing the Soundex index reels for those years. But the "Census" links are. Click on the one for the state you want. A list will appear in the upper right frame a live link labeled by the number of each reel and a description of each reel by state, municipality, and ED's covered. If the search handed you the reel number, just scroll down to that one and click on the link. This will spawn a new window or tab opened to the correct reel on the Internet Archive. Now jump forwards and backwards through the reel to find the page you want. The ED and sheet numbers are shown consistently in the same place on the pages of the reel. For later census's, this is the upper right corner. I hope you find this helpful and would be happy to post back to answer questions if you or anyone else has questions or gets stuck.
