Ancestry.com: >My only complaint is the newspaper index does >not zero in well. I agree with Shirley. It takes forever to find the correct article on the page & then it isn't the same name entered. This is a waste of time. However, like Shirley, I love my subscription to Ancestry.com. I can't live without it. It's worth every penny. I have the full subscription and use every bit of it. I too, think I save money by having it. Another good site, & part of My Family.com, is the Genealogy.com Historical Library. I have found excellent info there too. I just have that one part of Genealogy.com & it was only abt. $79. It has will abstracts & many vitals from the old Eastern part of the U.S. If My Family.com will allow it, ask if you can take a look for a day to see what all the library has. It is excellent if you have eastern ancestors. Unfortunately, Godfrey Library is not going to have all of their sites that I have enjoyed so much. I really loved the books. I hope they can turn that around. Never used Godfrey for Heritage's census because it isn't complete & it's too hard to use, but the books on Heritage are wonderful & I have found so much there. I hope the new director can turn things around. Godfrey is a bargain at $35 & I think they should raise that to at least $45 to help keep some of what they had. In the meantime, I'm excited that Tom Kemp is at NewsBank. We are waiting for your "what's new" annoucement, Tom! May all of your brick walls crumble. -Donna
