I have subscribed to ancestry.com censuses for 6 months, and I love it. It
is absolutely worth the 30 cents/day that an annual subscription costs. I
have done thousands of lookups for myself and other people. If you really
believe you can look yours up in 3 months, then you should join one of the
rootsweb lists that offers volunteer lookups. You can request one per day
on each state list.

Tips on signing up for other lists:
------------------------------------------------------------

1. All lists are

(regular mode)
(digest mode)


The XX is to be removed and replaced by the two letter abbreviation for the
state in which you wish to do research.

Examples:








2. So, send an email to the one of your choice (make sure to have the
state). Do
not put anything in the subject line. In the body of the email write only:

subscribe

Then send it on :)

3. POSTING to the new census lists:

A. Send it to (supply the two letter state
code
for the XX again)

B: Subject line MUST have the following:
County/Year/Surname

Example: Saginaw/1850/Smith


C: In the body of the email:

List whom you are looking for.
Supply as much information as you can.
Birthplace, ages, occupation, etc.
