Talk:Illinois Census

Because the links to Ancestry.com are problematic to create and maintain based on differing subscription limitations, I think we should look at approaching the table differently. What about putting ALL Ancestry.com info into a single column, and linking directly to the Ancestry.com census search page? A footnote could explain the differing flavors of Ancestry.com subscription, and where someone might gain access (e.g., a FamilySearch Center or public library). Any other ideas? At the moment, virtually all the links in the Ancestry.com Institution column fail (or at least they fail for me). Lembley 15:00, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

The Federal Census microfilm links available from the National Archives do not work. May we have your permission to unlink them? We appreciate your commitment in making the Wiki a reliable source of information. Thank you so much.
