Greetings from across the Pond
« on: Sunday 24 October 04 16:08 BST (UK) »
I've only just discovered this site, and it looks to be a treasure.  Maybe digging up my English roots from the US won't be so difficult after all.

I have access to all US Census schedules, so if anyone needs a lookup, I'd be glad to help.

Nice to be here.
