_Click here: FamilySearch Labs_ (http://www.labs.familysearch.org/) Link above. I agree with Joyce that there have been some things available that I haven't found through ancestry such as death records for many family members in Ohio. Lots to look over so take a few minutes and check out the site. In a message dated 7/28/2008 2:07:01 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, jarmscoop@aol.com writes: ??? Dick Eastman had some good news for family history researchers. "For several years, the only places to find online U.S. Census records was Ancestry.com (rather expensive), Genealogy.com (also expensive), or at HeritageQuest Online (free to users but only available through subscribing libraries). These were the only sites to carry the images of the original records for entire states. It seems interesting that in the past few months, other web sites have started offering access to the same census record images and indexes. "The new pilot project of FamilySearch, owned by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, has the 1850, 1870, and 1900 U.S. Census records available free of charge. Some of the records are not yet complete. For instance, only 15 states' records are available today on the site. Details may be found at http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=0?.? Massachusetts and Wisconsin state census records are also available at the same location.? "Footnote.com now has the 1860 U.S. Census records online as part of its Civil War Collection. This copy of the U.S. census is completely indexed. While not free, the access is cheap at $7.95 a month for unlimited access. Details may be found at http://www.footnote.com?xid=46." I'm particularly impressed with the pilot project at Family Search. ? I have already found a Michigan birth listing that is not available on Ancestry, and a Washington death certificate that is more complete than the listing on Ancestry.
