About the USGenWeb ArchivesNational Genealogical Society's "Why Should A Genealogical Society Give Records Away?" by Jeffrey A. Bockman. Statement about USGenWebMany thanks to Dr. Brian Leverich and Karen Isaacson, founders of Rootsweb Genealogical Data Cooperative now Rootsweb.Ancestry.Com, and later MyFamily.com and The Generations Network for generously providing space on their servers for the past 12 years. In the spring of 2008, the USGenWeb Digital Library (USGenWeb Archives) began hosting their pages independent of Rootsweb. We are very grateful for their support over the years and we would not be in existence today, were it not for the support they have given us. Once the decision was made to develop a project, originally called "TimeToDo" Something, a call went out to volunteers who would be willing to transcribe primary records as a service to the Internet genealogical community, find a way to get them posted on the Internet, and supporting the The USGenWeb Project county hosts by storing large files in a central location with a search engine. Space was donated by RootsWeb.Com for storage of the files. The table above is broken down by state. The left column represents the location of a Table of Contents for each state, which contain a brief description of each file and a direct link to it. The middle column is linked to the actual directory of that state's archived files, and the third column lists the state file managers. The USGenWeb Archives Digital Library was implemented in July 1996, and files are being added everyday. If you have transcriptions to contribute, please contact the person listed on the state Table of Contents page. Please read the Guidelines for file contributions. The files need to be in ASCII text format, and will be converted by the state archive manager if in another form. To help our volunteers, please read how to prepare files for submitting. In February, 1997, the USGenWeb Archives Census Project was launched. In February, 1999, the USGenWeb Archives Pension Project was launched. In April, 1999, the United States Digital Map Project was launched.
In January, 2000, the USGenWeb Archives Special Collections Project was launched.

The USGenWeb Archives Census Project - the OriginalIn February, 1997, the Archives coordinator asked the archivists for a volunteer to head up a census transcription project with the goal of getting every census transcribed and in the USGenWeb Archives for free access. Ken Hollingsworth answered that call and transcribers were recruited. The original goal was to complete the 1850 census transcriptions, but the overwhelming response from volunteers resulted in all years being included. Software was developed, CTA, by John Rigdon for 1850, which would produce a standardized text file and a database to be used for future census studies and with a search engine that would point to the actual images that would be online in the Archives. A few months later, Phil Beshear developed CART, which produces text, database, and html, and covers several years. Late 1999, Bill Husler developed CensTrans, geared toward MAC users. Thanks to S-K Publications who has provided transcription material and census images, and CensusVu, --> AllCensus and Blue Roses for census images, and the hundreds of volunteers, census data is being uploaded to the USGenWeb Archives everyday, both text transcriptions, and actual images of the microfilm. SK Publications is offering group rates for cd purchases, and donates the images for uploading to the USGenWeb Archives.
