I'm not an apologist for Ancestry - don't have a paid account, and they pretty much bought up all the free sites which tics me off, sell my old trees from a million years ago to people on CD's and I can't access them for free, a ton of gripes. But Family Search doesn't have the images from all the US census records, and though I can do a decent job without them I like to look :+) Ancestry, for what it's worth, has a somewhat better indexing. So if it's free, I use it.

I sometimes get annoyed with Ancestry, but I think their prices are very reasonable.

I happened to see it was free over the weekend and I alerted my son, in another state and he really got into it and so did I. We spent hours looking up relatives and making our tree, and it was so interesting. He did the join for a month thing, but I did not. I recall making a tree on paper for a school project, maybe in 5th grade, so some of it came back to me, but this was great seeing the census records. I need to do something with all of this to preserve it for the next generation.
