The Volunteers and I try our best to get the information correct on all files. We succeed most of the time. As with all projects this size there will be mistakes. Please forgive us as we are only human and we will make mistakes. Mistakes that I hope will be taken with a smile and a nod by our visitors. As with all research, a researcher should always go to original records for conformation of data.
Do send constructive advice and corrections !!

| Census Information |
|
| You can purchase census records from
allcensus.com. I have purchased CD's from them and they are reasonable and not bad for the money. James Edenfield |
The Census takers were not very careful with the census and many people
are not listed as they should be..Use of Ditto Marks were used for Color
and they put a W or a B at the top of page and went down. So be careful
researchers. I know there will be many corrections. I have
a web page where I will post all corrections sent to me.

Corrections for any Census for Jackson Co FL willl be posted here.
Sent Dist # and Page # with your corrections. I post to the

Search for Online Documents I recently began work with DEP/ State Lands as their DBA. I provide support for their online Internet document retrievel system, that was made available to the public today. I think it could be a valuable tool for geneolgists. See the description & link below. Pass this link along, because if this site gets enough hits, more pages will be developed. You will see my DEP e-mail address at the bottom of the Contact Us page. Feel free to contact me at that address if you have suggestions or comments. garry.durden@dep.state.fl.us The Introduction This is the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), Division of State Lands, Board of Trustees Land Document System. Here, we have collected data and electronic images for millions of active and historical documents maintained by the Division of State Lands. This site has a simple search engine, allowing you to specify basic information about the document for which you are looking. Then, all documents matching the information you provide will be listed. From the list, you may "drill down" to get detailed data about a document, and even view the document in GIF format. You may also download TIFF and PDF version of the document images. http://199.73.242.56/internet.asp |
