Take note of a new source coming on line for genealogy
research
.......My latest project is doing indexing for
Family Search. I don't know if you know that they are indexing all of their
records so that people might have free access to them on the FamilySearch.org
website. I have worked on a few Canadian census records but most have been
1850 Census from Illinois & Pennsylvania as well as birth and marriage records
from West Virginia. There are new records coming on line all of the time. It
was exciting to do some 1871 Halifax Census records. I was hoping to come
across some names that I knew but did not.
I am letting you know about this exciting new
undertaking so that you can let others know. (I think that they decided to do
this as Ancestry.com is no longer free for the Family History Centers and
people are having to pay to access information. For my participation, it is
an opportunity to let me 'pay back' for all the information that I have been
able to access on the internet at no or very little cost. Also, it is
something that I can do at home at any time of the day. S. Livingstone
