I would like to hear some comments from any of you who have subscribed to ancestry.com or genealogy.com. Is one better than the other? Are they worth the price? Also, on the 1880 census transcribed on the familysearch.org site, I have been unable to locate some of my people--anyone else have this problem? I wonder if perhaps the pages were damaged or illegible. Mary Ann Holder

Mary Ann, I'm not familiar enough with either of them (ancestry.com or genealogy.com) to make a judgment. Probably depends a lot on the individual and exactly where you are on your personal search. At any rate, I have Sistler's 1880 census index booklets for Coffee, Cannon & Rutherford Counties of Tennessee. If your missing people are in those areas, send me a FEW names & I'll check to see if they made his abstraction. Jess Lewis
