It sounds somewhat easier than the government site, although the Stephen Morse directions did get me to the 30 pages of census in my ancestors' county, which I immediately paged through (with the new LION operating system on the MacPro).<br /><br />Now that I've written a family memoir trying to understand my ancestors' minds and hearts when they were slaveowners (@MariannSRegan has a book blog), I am searching for my mixed-race relatives, second and third cousins. <br /><br />After I had gone through the 30 pages using Morse's approach, and found no one with our surname, I happened to click on another part of the page and realized there were 32 other sets of census records that I had not realized were there. Well, I'm on a learning curve.<br /><br />I think I'll try the MyHeritage method the next time I venture. It sounds very smooth, the way you explain it.

T...I have searched through two EDs at My Heritage. The first ED was 7-51 in Bloomfield, Essex, NJ and it worked just fine. I was able to view all the pages and scroll between them. Then I went to 7-49 of the same town and there were not any arrows on the top of the images to move between the images of that ED. Those were the only two I tried so hope it's just a fluke and they get it fixed soon.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08869855513272348366noreply@blogger.com
