Ancestry's 1890 Census Substitute Perhaps you have heard about Ancestry's effort to string together a number of sources of basic information which could bridge the gap left by the destruction of the 1890 US Census. As the various bits are put online (mostly city directories, but also tax lists, voter registration lists, etc), they will be searchable for free for a few weeks. So it might be worthwhile to visit this url weekly. 1890 Federal Census Substitute (First Installment) http://www.ancestry.com/search/rectype/census/1890sub/main.htm Sincerely, Connie Baumann Asst.
