Here's an alternative for ya'll -

For all the WIGenWeb county sites - http://www.usgenweb-search.us/WI.html

For a specific other state or special project - http://www.usgenweb-search.us/

I found it quite interesting as these just focus on web sites associated with
the various USGenWeb Project sites - which depending upon your query can be
more specific perhaps than Ancestry.

I know for myself that my family tended to hop across county lines rather
than the lines redrawn around them as the census years rolled by. Perhaps
your missing family is sitting just over a county line - where you may have
not been looking.
