The town of Brant is situated in the extreme southwest corner of Erie county, New York. It is bounded on the west by Lake Erie, on the north by Evans, on the east by North Collins, on the south by Chautauqua county and by that part of the Cattaraugus reservation attached to the town of Collins. Its extreme length east and west is nearly ten miles; its width is about three and seven-eighths miles,

Today, we completed yet another New England state census directory. This time we provided extensive links to the Rhode Island census records found online. Like the preceeding Connecticut census and Vermont census records most of the records available for Rhode Island were limited to the earlier census records. In fact, we found few free transcribed records that weren't already published as books

Today we updated our Vermont census records at AccessGenealogy. Like our recent post on Connecticut census records, visitors may be dissappointed with the amount of free census records available for each county. Extensive online research for census records in Vermont will likely have you paying for that access.Census taking in Vermont began in 1791, and Vermont holds a unique position in census

Today we updated and added to our Connecticut census records on Access Genealogy. For those looking for free census records for Connecticut, you will be disheartened by what we found. Other then the major free census available mainly at the Pilot project at Family Search, there were minimal transcriptions done. Basically, if you're conducting extensive census research in CT then you're likely

The Arkansas Census records at Access Genealogy have been updated.The census directory provides the researcher with the most current records available online for free, and clearly annotates when there are no records available for that census year for free, and provides links to paid sources instead.

Thanks to C. W. Barnum, Access Genealogy has placed online information on over 35,000 names of soldiers who registered to fight for either the Confederate or Union Armies. Some of these are duplicates, showing that the soldier fought for more then one company, or that the names were different in such a manner as to render an indefinite identity.For instance, the following three records are likely
