<P class=MsoNormal>I thought the list might find the following link to the
National Archives web site of interest.<o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>The short video walks you through the process to determine
the enumeration districts which will allow you to access the 1940 census
images on April 2, 2012. <o:p> </o:p></P>

<P class=MsoNormal>This site will be available for free, but is not a fully
indexed version of the census. (Several subscriptions sites will have
the fully indexed version available at a later date.)<o:p></o:p></P>
