The short answer is that if a > census year is indexed on Ancestry.com, it is not indexed on > genealogy.com.

On Genealogy.com, > You can not use wildcard searches. > You can not search for a particular surname by county. > You can not search for one particular given name by county. > You can not enter search parameters for age, place of birth, etc. > > There may be other differences that do not immediately come to mind. > > Glee <gleemc@earthlink.net> Also remember that Ancestry has just acquired Genealogy.com so before long they will be one and the same.
