Ray,
I have done both! So down the road, surely they will find one or the other!

Better yet, scan a copy and store it with your image files. Don't forget
to
do the cover page also. It is the only place that shows your address.

Someone suggested to me that we all copy the pages we enter in the new
census, to save for our own future generations. IF we have that paper
among
our possessions our grandchildren won't have to wait 75 years to see what
was in this census! I was disappointed in the facts requested of us too.

I am excited and disappointed at the same time. I finally got my 2010
Census
and was excited about the prospect of filling it out as we deal with it so
much in our research. I felt it a duty to future generations. However, the
information asked for was rather void of any real content compared with
years past. They don't ask any of the questions that they used to ask, no
occupation or anything like that.
Anyway...
I have recently taken over doing the website for the Owen County
Historical
and Genealogical Society. The new URL for anyone looking for it is --
http://www.sweetowen.net/OCHGShomepage.html
I also realize that I have been slack in updating the Sweet Owen site
lately
and the reasoning is due to building the site for the Society as well as I
have been going through the Sweet Owen site and cleaning up errors,
missing
pages, bad links, and generally anything that looks bad. If you have any
corrections to your surname searches, this is the time to send them to me
as
I am completely going through the site page by page. It is quite a task
though. If you do however decide to send any corrections to your surnames
PLEASE be very clear what you are sending so that I can store it properly
until it is entered. Please place SURNAME CORRECTIONS in your subject
line.
Likewise if there are any email changes place EMAIL CHANGES in your
subject
line.
I PROMISE -- I will return to updating the website as soon as possible. I
just got tired of constantly coming up against bad links or anything of
that
sort.
I have also as of Sunday created a page for the Sweet Owen and Surrounding
Areas on FACEBOOK. The location is --
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Sweet-Owen-and-Surrounding-Areas/369062797135?
v=wall.
Just go there and click on "become a fan". If you aren't a member, please
consider joining facebook, it is simple and again free. This will give us
another avenue to post queries or just anything. Not so structured as the
mailing list. Perhaps more viewers to your searches. As I can I will throw
obituaries on there or just any little thing pertaining to research.
Perhaps
announcements about website updates or other stuff. I don't know how many
of
you have Facebook, but it was just a thought that perhaps it would serve
us
well. It is free and IF EVER Rootsweb changes or as it is connected to
Ancestry, it becomes any kind of pay service, this would provide us with
an
avenue for free positng. That is why I created the website on a different
server in order to have that control. This Facebook will remain regardless
of what may ever happen with Rootsweb/Ancestry. (No, I haven't heard
anything.) Photos may also be placed on there. I haven't really got
anything
there right now, just the page. The more people who visit though, they can
add stuff maybe.
