I am not sure how long Heritage Quest has been around, but Ancestry.com has a LARGE database. It is too bad that one cannot see what each source has at its disposal before one makes the financial arrangement. Ancestry.com does provide some free access to some of its data for a limited time period. I am not sure about Heritage Quest, but you might drop them a note and find out if they have a similar arrangement. John Fox Winston Salem, NC
