Nichelle, Thank you for mentioning three of my posts this week in your Friday Finds. I do want to share Cathy Meder-Dempsey’s comment about the UVA Historical Census Finder. I wrote that post before we left on a six week trip. From then until now, apparently the site was hacked and there is a notice up that some of the site isn’t working and it will be coming down.

Thank you for that information!!
