Truth be told - they already cut off as of yesterday!

Even worse - Ancestry folks had been "looting" Family History Library to 
get the images, etc. Iowa State Census is one example.

Once the FHL complete the digitalizing of entire collection, Ancestry 
will have nothing to compete with because it is free.

Family History Library is looking for volunteers to index digitalized 
images projects now underway.

go to http://www.familysearchindexing.org/en/index.jsp

Several states' death certificate projects are done.
Utah, Ohio, Georgia
Texas in process.
Arizona already done (genealogy.az.gov)
