The guy who created census tools added a cemetery tool which I told you about last month. Now he has added a ship's manifest tool. All of them are in spreadsheet form. He has a page about compatibility. http://censustools.com/ In his newsletter for this month he has an interesting article regarding online sources of original documents. He's pretty candid about them. I don't know this guy but he seems to do a good job creating useful forms for genealogists. If you find them useful and you can donate to him that spurs such people on to creating more useful forms. Another tool you might find useful is Census Mate at http://censusmate.com/index.html His web site also has some census information that you might find useful. The trackers strike me as particularly useful.
