Ready to tackle the Census Review by J.S.

I've been doing genealogy for a few years and I'm just getting into looking at the Census. I didn't know where to start and felt frustrated when I never found anyone until recently. After I read the information on this very informative CD, I feel ready to tackle the Census. Keep up the good work.
