Hi Ray

Took a quick tour round your genealogy site, and as far as I could
see, your frames setup is working fine (though I have to admit, I
didn't try every single county on your map!).  Personally, I've got no
problems with frames as long as they're put together OK, which yours
appear to be.  :-)

Site looks nice too.  Only quibble I have is with the length of the
files in the census records section - is there no way you could make
them a bit smaller, and simply have more of them?  I know you've got a
warning there to let people know that they'll take a while to load,
but if you're looking for just one entry, it feels an awful long time
to have to wait!  A lot of the genealogy sites I've wandered through
seem to go in for these very large files - not entirely sure why that
is.

Regards,
Donna
