I use that method all the time John. I learned it from you years ago. It really is a good method.

This is an excerpt from the NGS newsletter regarding pictures that I thought you might find useful. Just a few simple rules, and everyone will count the people in their pictures the same way. 1. We'll count noses leftmost first, and rightmost last-anyone with two noses is automatically counted as only one person. 2. We'll decide the leftmost nose with a vertical line from bottom to top-say use the right edge of a sheet of paper as a way to run a vertical line across the picture. 3. What about two noses on the same vertical line? Count the one nearest the bottom of the page first. 4. What about babes in arms? Count the nose. 5. What about superfluous people like those that are in the picture, but are not "in" the picture? A nose is a nose; count it if you see it. 6. What if your ancestor was born without a nose? Don't send anyone the picture!! In all seriousness, the above method for counting people in a picture will leave all of us without a doubt as to who is who when sharing pictures with friends, relatives, and other researchers [see figure 1]..[1] http://www.NGSgenealogy.org/upfront/050104/web/fign1.jpg <http://www.ngsgenealogy.org/upfront/050104/web/fign1.jpg> BTW, this method is also being used to count and identify individuals in photographs contributed to the NGS Family Papers Collection.

The solution is to join the Tazewell County G&H which has Heritage Quest available to members. There are other places -- a research library in Connecticut is commonly cited and I am sure they make plenty from people who join only to get Heritage Quest. I support giving your money to more local organizations who might help you if you are looking for a reasonable inexpensive way to get Heritage Quest -- that would be Tazewell County G&H for the $15 membership fee plus $12 for Heritage Quest. http://www.tcghs.org/ I get it free through my library [but I'm moving] and through the NYGBS which would be a pretty expensive method [$60 annually] if I weren't doing some research there at the moment.

Guy, There was a recent article in the Dallas Morning News about that. Maybe you saw it. It seemed to indicate that some libraries were raising funds to pay for the continuation of Heritage Quest on TexShare. I don't know if Irving would do it. I believe I read that the Dallas Library was maybe through the Genealogical Society. I get mine through Grapevine. I will have to check to see what they are doing.

There is a bit more to it than that. Here in Texas, municipal libraries get their funding for the Heritage Quest subscription through a grant from the state legislature.

Cheryl wrote: > I'm getting those Social Security Death Index searches I've been putting off > done now too. Who knows how long that will be free. Good point, Cheryl -- there are other SSDI search engines out there (FamilySearch has one, for example), but the one on Rootsweb is far and away the best I've found. I'd hate to see them start charging for it. Guy I. Colby IV Irving, TX

Our library also uses this service. I have enjoyed using it but also don't know if it will continue. We may have to chose between Ancestory or Heritage Quest. I don't know what the annual fee is but some of us may go together and make a donation to keep it to try and keep it. --- [email protected] wrote: > Carroll wrote: > > > > I can access the census through my library for > free online with Heritage > > Quest.

This is a post from another list and is a point of view that you might want to consider. i cannot believe that people are jumping on something that was not entirely stated correctly.... ONEWORLDTREE is an internal search engine.... why wouldnt you want your tree to participate in a mega engine on ancestry.com.... have you EVER tried to look thru a big, long worldconnect for your family... DO YOU KNOW what the amount of time is involved to do this.... the amount of time even with the advance search tools.... It is a huge undertaking... made more huge if you have a very common name.... so why would you want to exclude the gedcom you put on ancestry now, when a new search engine is being created to make the job easier.... why did you put your gedcom there in the FIRST place if you are now going to remove it.....and now, removing it when it might get you more hits than ever before....???? please... read the info on the link below and understand it, question it and give some thought BEFORE you start removing your stuff...... http://trees.ancestry.com/owt/about.aspx does the engine come with a price... why sure, why shouldnt it.... ? it does NOT mean that your gedcoms are not accessible for free... only the search engine to look at them in one stroke is for a fee.... and for those who wish to use that vs advanced search, it will be worth the price....... others, for free, can look at the gedcoms on rootsweb.com and ancestry.com and use the old advanced search..... .. the original post was a call of FIRE! i can only hope that the person just did not understand the concept.... and responded without thought... valentine --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

The information came to me through Rootsweb! Who are you going to believe? Perhaps the plan changed somewhere along the line when folks began removing family data?

I thought there was already a search engine for the Trees? Why should one pay to use a search engine when they can use a free one or does that mean they are doing away with the free one? I, for one, do not agree with charging for a search engine, so I pulled my trees I had online. My stuff is free and I do not like someone having to pay to see it even if its only through a search engine. It could have been found without paying for searching. I am an Ancestry subscriber but will be rethinking about renewing. I do love the Census subscription if they ever get it all indexed.

I can access the census through my library for free online with Heritage Quest. They have that deal with public libraries throughout the country check into it. I just log on to my library's website go under genealogy and use my library card and number to get onto Heritage quest which is a pay service most of the time except through libraries.
