I don't know if this is true, but I for one wouldn't mind paying a small fee for the convenience of accessing the digitized records from the convenience of my home. I used to pay $5 plus per FHL film and had to drive 12 miles each way to be able to view films once a week for only 2 hours with no ability to make a copy (except if I used my own digital camera). I used to pay for Ancestry.com too, but have recently dropped my subscription because I am finding enough info available for free on the web to keep me busy. I will probably re-up my subscription to Ancestry.com late 2012 once the 1940 U.S. Census starts to get indexed sometime next year. (Maybe I need to get to work on a modification to the "Advanced Tag Living" LTool to only tag individuals who appear to be "heads of households".) -- Dennis Kowallek (LTools) http://zippersoftware.com/ltools/index.htm http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ltools NOTE TO LUG USERS: Use plain text if you want me to read your post.
