Ancestry.com doesn't have any UK censuses listed among their "New UK & Ireland Collection" - yet - but one never knows what they will come up with next. If you'd like to see what they do have, try http://www.ancestry.com/search/locality/dbpage.htm?t=3257&c=3251 My ancestry membership doesn't include the UK & Ireland collection - I''m still working on getting my money's worth out of their US Census images. There's also HeritageQuest.com, who provide microfilms & CD-ROMS of various things. Again, no UK censuses yet, but who knows what they'll come up with in the future? If anyone finds a CD they're interested in, I can buy it at the member's price. Any librarians among us? Received this earlier this week: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ How your library can request trial access to HeritageQuest Online (tm) -- Online Census Records, Local and Family History ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ProQuest is moving forward with this project to mount the entire US Census, 1790-1930, images and indexes online. Initially launched in December 2000, the ProQuest Genealogy & Local History Online(tm) is changing its name to HeritageQuest Online(tm), with integrated content from both companies. As with all of their databases and indexes they will continue to display the original page from the handwritten document or published source, not just a citation. More than 25,000 published genealogies and local histories digitized, every word searchable, are already available and in 2002 they will add the entire U.S. Federal Census, 1790-1930; the entire Canadian Census; complete Freedman's Bank Records; American Revolutionary War Pension & Bounty Land Warrant Applications and obituaries from more than 150 newspapers across America. Enhanced digital images of every page and new indexing will provide every library with the most requested resources for genealogists and local historians. The collection of 25,000 published genealogies and local histories includes: family genealogies, county & town histories, church histories, maps, atlases, vital records and over 200 genealogical journals. As HeritageQuest Online(tm) grows, it will include not only the census Images and indexes, but a wide range of original documents and published materials in a digital format. New content is added weekly. Librarians can obtain more information and free online trials by contacting ProQuest sales at, 800-521-0600, ext. 3183 or 3452 or by writing [email protected] This online service is not currently available to individuals at this time; however individuals interested in more information should call 800-760-2455 or visit www.heritagequest.com. -- *Marsha L.
