With the
advent of a New Year and many resolving to commit to New Year's Resolution's

The USGENWEB Census Project is a group of volunteers dedicated to getting
all the available census records online for FREE to EVERYONE.
Each transcriber volunteers to obtain a copy usually in microfilm,CD or book
