I just finished reading the product descriptions for the Lackawanna County, 1900 Federal Census. I compared the Enumeration Districts against the Lackawanna County web site census description. The CDs from HeritageQuest do not contain all the Enumeration Districts for Lackawanna County, or for the city of Scranton. Large sections of the county and city are missing. If their own description is correct these CDs would be of no use to me. I suggest others make the comparison before purchasing them. Jim Dolan PS: I sent this yesterday and I'm not sure it got through, so here it is again.

It was pointed out to me that the below statement was incorrect. In fact you can get full coverage for Lackawanna County by purchasing 5 CDs, at the price of $99.75. My mistake was the result of looking at the CDs listed under Lackawanna County. To get the full list you need to access it through the census path. Sorry if I inconvenienced anyone.
