How to request trial access to HeritageQuest Online™ - Online Census Data

ProQuest is moving forward with this project to mount the entire US Census,
1790-1930, images and indexes online.

Initially launched in December 2000, the ProQuest Genealogy & Local History
Online™ is changing its name to HeritageQuest Online, with integrated content
from both companies. As with all of their databases and indexes they will
continue to display the original page from the handwritten document or
published source, not just a citation. These include more than 25,000
published genealogies and local histories digitized, every word searchable;
Sanborn® fire insurance maps; complete Freedman's Bank Records; the entire US
Census, 1790-1930, the entire Canadian Census; American Revolutionary War
Pension & Bounty Land Warrant Applications and obituaries from more than 150
newspapers across America. Enhanced digital images of every page and new
indexing will provide every library with the most requested resources for
genealogists and local historians.

The collection of 25,000 published genealogies and local histories includes:
family genealogies, county & town histories, church histories, maps, atlases,
vital records and over 200 genealogical journals. As HeritageQuest Online
grows, it will include not only the census Images and indexes, but a wide
range of original documents and published materials in a digital format. New
content is added weekly, with census material available online by December
2001.

Librarians can obtain more information and free online trial of the actual
online database by contacting ProQuest sales at, 800-521-0600, ext. 3183 or
3452 or <A HREF="mailto:">e-mail</A>.

Individuals interested in more information should call 800-760-2455.

A sample search of the <A HREF="http://wwwlib.umi.com/genealogy/main.htm">online service</A> is available.
