Don't give in that easy :) Just remember the National Archives in your
Source and Citation.

Ancestry deserves the credit if that is where you saw the image. Just
remember, make sure there is enough information to be able for someone
else to direct them to the actual document(s) (National Archives) to
find the census.

==

Utah, Iron County. 1880 U.S. census, population schedule. Digital
images. Ancestry.com. http://www.ancestry.com: 2007. From the National
Archives microfilm publication. T1, roll 123.

Then... Cite

1800 U.S. census, Iron County, Utah, population schedule, Enumeration
District 888, p.65, dwelling 345, family............

You can see one can find the Source of the information and detailed
(citation) and still give Ancestry the credit. If they go out of
business, one can still find the census.

I think the Source Writer will guide you.
