Lots of libraries are subscribing to the Heritage Quest Census.........
Check the libraries in your own community and neighboring
communities......
Most do require you to have a library card and they are using the
"Bar
Code"...... For those of you that live in smaller communities....
perhaps
you have a family member or close friend living in one of the
communities
that does subscribe to the Heritage Quest Census databases and that
your
relatives or friend will let you use their "Library Bar
Code".....
Some
of
the larger libraries have a number of databases that might be of
interest
to
you..... therefore you might consider "Borrowing" several
different
"Library
Bar Codes" from your friends..... [All you need is the
numbers]......

> I have tried the above site and it works......... It does not have
the
"Soundex" feature..... therefore you will probably need to
try various
spellings of your surname.....
