    3. Just a heads-up for anyone else. I occasionally used HQ images when they were better than those from Ancestry. The HQ pages have said that "upgrades" were coming this week. It appears that those are to use Ancestry's, search system, indexes and images. I just checked on an image I recently copied from HQ because it was clear- Ancestry's was virtually too faint to read. The HQ image is now Ancestry's, meaning the readable image from HQ is gone. Rick Saunders

    3. Rick, That's not a good thing. I use Heritage Quest through our Tennessee Electronic Library because being a Tennssee resident it is free. I have found the same thing, if I find an image on Ancestry that is not that great I can usually get a better image from Heritage Quest. Why do they insist on messing with things that are working just as they are? But then again they didn't ask me, LOL! Melissa Barker Certified Archivist Houston County, TN.
