It appears that only Albany and Allegany counties are fully indexed and a few other counties are partially indexed.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16060860130861428749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5512311610334754148.post-18597711016450435742012-05-09T07:21:49.468-06:002012-05-09T07:21:49.468-06:00The end of the first sentence should read somethin...The end of the first sentence should read something like their primary activity in life, a constant cacophony.ldave45https://www.blogger.com/profile/01093870979901228548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5512311610334754148.post-86465650312751182792012-05-09T07:13:59.402-06:002012-05-09T07:13:59.402-06:00No offense but tell that to the thousands who have...No offense but tell that to the thousands who have made complaining about the lack of availability NOW ( or preferably, on Apr. 2, 2012, like the Phoenix rising from the ashes). of the fully indexed version of the 1940 census. <br />The sooner we get it done and available the sooner, I hope and pray, this whining will stop. And, if people aren't whining about the "lack" of an indexed 1940 census, they are whining that " their states" should be made available first.

My concern is that recently, the "browse only" records haven't been coming online very fast. I heard that they digitize 10 pages of microfilm a second. Why aren't more of those records getting put online more quickly. The United States page has listed 578 records categories for a couple of weeks now. Probate and deeds records can and should be published prior to indexing (most have written surname indexes in them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
