I need to extend an apology to the list. First, I wasn't clear about the fact that another lady had originally posted the information about the Fremont Library and Heritage Quest. I just got too excited and got carried away. She deserves a huge round of applause. I[m sorry I can't remember her name now, and I've already deleted the e-mail. Second: I told you wrong. You have to go in through the Fremont library connection to get there without having a log-in problem. Some people may still have problems. I don't know if it's because of Microsoft vs Netscape, or if it's just their computer. However. (And according to the lady's original and very clear instructions) you need to do it this way: Go to the Fremont library site. http://www.fremontlibrary.org/fplddb.asp Then go down and click on Genealogy and Local History Online This brings you in the back door. You'll be at Heritage Quest. Then click on search census or search books. I haven't tried the books yet. Barbara
