It is official! The Benton County 1860 Transcription project is back into full swing! Several volunteers have started transcribing and some of them are already having their transcriptions proofread! Hopefully we'll be having the complete 1860 census on line soon! I'm very excited about this and want to thank everyone already involve for their continued support and determination to see this project completed. If you haven't already signed up for a township and you would like to help, please take a look at the following pages. Bookmark these pages! They will be updated frequently. 1860 Federal Census Transcription Volunteers - http://www.rootsweb.com/~iabenton/census/1860.htm Please don't hesitate to use this mail list to discuss any questions you might have about this transcription project. We'll all learn as we go along and sharing our thoughts, concerns, and questions will help each other. Kay Mason, The USGenWeb Project National Census Coordinator, is also in charge of all Iowa Federal Census Transcriptions and will answer our questions as they come up and I'll post her replies so you can review them at anytime.
