Census Records
| Title of web site | Web site address | # of records | Date Range | Cost or Free | Notes |
| The USGenWeb Census Project | www.us-census.org and go down to Census Surname Search and then find IN and put in the word "census" | 794 links with varying numbers of records per each | 1790-1920 | Free | Wow, what a site! Transcribed by volunteers and still in the works, I really found this site great! You can search by year, state, or name! |
| Census Online, California, 653 links | www.census-online
.com/links/IN/ | 1,000s | 1840-1900 | Free | Another nice site without the information of how much is posted. A lot is posted however it is difficult to search through to find your ancestor as there is not a surname search |
Cemetery Records

| Indiana Inscription Cemetery Search | www.obitcentral.com
/cemsearch/in-cem.htm | 1600 documents with various numbers of results per each | varies | Free | Another nice searchable site that takes a lot of its information from RootsWeb, but it also catalogues from other cemetery sites. |
| Cemetery Transcription Library | www.interment.net
/data/search.htm | 100s | varies | Free | What a cool site! It's hard to pin point exactly how many records there are per site as it only gives the "best" 300, although it gave a general number for the entire site. |
| Search the Virtual Cemetery | www.genealogy.com
/VG/vcem_search.html | 100s | varies | Free | A nice searchable site. And how fun it was to bring up a name and see a picture of the actual headstone. |
