We are willing to search line by line, and page by page, but no one seems to be getting any pages to even start this process. I would read the whole county census. That's what I had to do for years, anyway, until Ancestry.com hired those lovely workers to index for us. But I am spoiled. I want it online, even if I have to read it line by line. Time is passing and I'm not getting any younger. Shirley Maynard Hampton, VA
