[or-roots] Ancestry.com vs HQ census

[Chris & Bill Strickland]

For me, the big difference is in the Search algorithms,  Ancestry will 
try to find what you think you want, and with HQ, you almost need to 
*know* where the entry is and how it is spelled to find it.  So, if you 
are looking for Welliver and HQ can't find it, Ancestry might find the 
entry where it is spelled Woolover.

In addition to the hundreds of duplicate rolls, there are different 
original filmings of some of the census records due to poor quality of 
some of the original films.  There are probably lists of these multiple 
filmings somewhere. And since the copies are not made directly off the 
original master copies, there is more room for variance comparing reel 
to reel, not to mention any digitizing process involved.
