Hi Listers This is not a commercial, really, I need your help, (and maybe you can help yourself and USGenWeb Archives ) The publishing Company below offers two pricing plans, one very expensive and one very reasonable. However when I go to the counties I am genealogically interested in, I find that few, and often zero people are on the "wait list" for that county/year (at the very reasonable price) Please check out the prices and if you think they are reasonable, I would very much appreciate it if you put your name on the wait list. S-K promises not to share your address and to allow you to change your mind before they "burn" your CD The county/years that I am interested in are: Union Co., Arkansas, 1900, 1910 Union Co., South Carolina 1810, 1820 Newberry Co., SC 1810, 1820 Lauderdale Co., ALabama 1810, 1820, 1830, 1840 Monroe Co., Mississippi 1850, 1860 Desoto Co., MS 1850, 1860, 1870 Tate Co., MS 1880, 1890 Marshall  Co., MS 1870 Panola Co., MS 1870, 1880, 1890 I am including a couple of other messages to show that there is other interest in census' Thanks a bunch, "______________________________ -------------------- X-Message: #3 Date: Fri, 13 Apr 2001 11:44:05 -0500 From: "alltel" <properties@alltel.net> To: AFHA-L@rootsweb.com Message-ID: <003101c0c438$f442b900$55fd66a6@dennis> Subject: [AFHA] Arkansas census on CD's Content-Type: text/plain;     charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Can anyone tell me where I can buy the Franklin Co., AR. census 1860 ~ 1900 on CD's Thank you, Vicky ______________________________ -------------------- X-Message: #4 Date: Fri, 13 Apr 2001 18:56:42 EDT From: Hstryhntr2@aol.com To: AFHA-L@rootsweb.com Message-ID: <42.136f141d.2808de2a@aol.com> Subject: Re: [AFHA] Arkansas census on CD's Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Disposition:  Inline In a message dated 4/13/01 11:33:48 AM Central Daylight Time, properties@alltel.net writes: > Can anyone tell me where I can buy the Franklin Co., AR. census 1860 ~ 1900 > on CD's > Thank you, Vicky I don't know if they have what you are looking for or not, but the best I have bought have been from S-K Publications.

Two pricing schemes: A) Individual Scanning Order (any census year): 75 cents per page.   See chart above for number of pages.  (For censuses earlier than 1850, e-mail us for an estimate.) We will charge a 50% deposit now and the balance when the CD is completed (approximately 3 months).  (If the pages should be more than the estimated # of pages, we will only charge for the estimated #.  If the pages should be less, we will only charge for the actual number of pages.) B) Wait List: 1850 through 1920 Census only.  S-K Publications will scan census images onto CD when  the figure in the "# to date" Column matches the figure in the "# needed" Column. Price per person: $20 per county per census year. Here's how it works: 1) If you would like to order one of these counties on CD for the price of $20 per year, fill out our  <A HREF="https://ssl5.pair.com/jschunk/genie/censuscd/cdwait.html">WAIT-LIST FORM</A>. 2) When we receive your form, we will update the "# to date" column. 3) As soon as the figure in the "# to date" reaches the "# needed," we will notify you that the county/census year can be scheduled for scanning onto CD (in approximately 2 months from then). 4) When the CD is completed, a copy of the census images will also be donated for free, permanent placement on-line in the USGenWeb Archives with your name listed as one of the donors.

Hi to all, On a list that I moderate (GAWALTON) we have purchased all but 2 census (1870 & 1910). These have all come from S-K Publications. What we agreed to do was send the money to one person (me), & then when we had enough collected, I ordered the census for the year we all agreed on. One CD was donated to the Archives, & the other was sent to me. The one for the Archives is automatically put online. I can enlarge my CD, & do look-ups for the folks that can't see theirs good enough, or can't quite make theirs out. After the purchase, each CD costs anyone else $20. John SCHUNK, of S-K Publications, has always been prompt about answering any questions we had before hand. Our web site for Walton Co Census is: http://www.rootsweb.com/~gawalton/Contents/census.html for further viewing. As for Census View, I was told to add $.25 ( or $.50) more to each page, so the cost was about the same as S-K. I would then have to mail in the CD to be scanned for the archives, & then it would be mailed back to me. On another list, (TXBOSQUE) we tried the AllCensus. They are speedy, & answered all our questions about the census, but they don't have them all yet. We have the 1860 & 1870 online through them: http://www.rootsweb.com/~txbosqu2/Contents/Census.html Blue Roses Publishing Company is where I bought the 1880 census from for Bosque Co., TX. They too are quick to answer questions you might have. If they don't have your particular CD in stock, it takes about 8 weeks to get it in, & then you have to mail it to the Archives to be scanned for online use, & then they mail it back to you. I believe they have updated their resources at: http://www.us-census.org/resources/cd.htm but I'm not real sure if all these allow their Cds to be scanned for online usage. I just know that S-K, Blue Roses, Census View, & AllCensus did. Bettie <>< -- God Answers Knee-mail!!!
