    3. Some from Cowlitz Co may be interested in the Lewis Co. Project????? > I have participated with the 1920 Pike Co.KY Census and have watched this > taking place quite abit in SW VA......is this something the Lewis Co. group > would be interested in? Cost is $20.00 and usually it takes from 15 to 25 > people participating (depending the number of pages on a census). These > are scanned copies and each one paying recieves the CD. Also a copy is > filed on the internet for others use. The only drawback with this is there > is no index, so on the Pike Co. list many volunteered different sections or > pages to list surnames and create our own index. I liked the CD Census as > you can magnify it and get abetter look at things.
