Heritage Quest is a genealogy site that you have to pay to subscribe to, but many public libraries subscribe to it and you can use it by going to the library or sometimes you can use it from home by accessing your public library card, clicking on Reference Dept. and then on Heritage Quest and then put your card number in. It has Census images, old books, PERSI, Rev. War pension papers, etc. Another thing that I want to mention here is that you can use Ancestry.comat most public libraries on their computers free. I see people at our library using it a lot. Also libraries can borrow census records and old books from other libraries through their inter-library lending programs. Our library here in St. Joseph, MO has all of our old newspapers on microfiche and lots of old books with information in them to use while you are there.
