I'm forwarding this just in case, but I hoped that most all of you are
signed up through IGS.

Hi everyone,
The USGenWeb has signed up to help
FamilySearch.org index the 1940 census!
We're listed under the participating "Societies" (they didn't have an
option
for a Project as such to register). If your state project would like to
participate, you'll need to register as a participating "society" too
(under
the USGenWeb Project "umbrella"). To register as either a participating
society or an individual transcriber (indexer), go to
http://the1940census.com/. Participating projects/societies can add one of
the Society badges displayed at
https://the1940census.com/society/society-badges-3/ on their sites, as well
as the individual indexers can participate in the Societies Games and
Prizes.
If you have any problems, please let either Linda Lewis
(webmaster(a)cottonhills.com) or I (usgenwebnc(a)windstream.net) know so we can
help. I know that we can mobilize an army to help indexing the census when
it is released next week - please help make that happen!
Sherri Bradley
National Coordinator
