Hello all,

As a fairly new family researcher, I've been following the recent discussion about census data and how to record it. I've found on the USGenWeb site, a citation for a relative in the 1790 census for Litchfield County in Connecticut. Since this is only a transcription, I was hoping to get a copy of the real document to insert as an exhibit in TMG (5.1) from HeritageQuest. Logging into HQ I don't find the relative I'm looking for. The references on the USGenWeb page refer (I think) to the actual census page numbers where the data was recorded, while the HQ site refers to microfiche page numbers, I think, so I can't search "page 61" as it's referenced in USGW in HQ. Is the data entry for this census incomplete or am I missing something?

I enjoy the posts and have learned a lot just sitting back and watching it all go by.

Thanks,
Ron Hamlin
