	**** NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND ITS BRANCHES ****

The dates following the city, is the date of publication
date of the source of information. The hours are most likely
to have changed.  Also, I believe someone reported recently
that the New York branch moved. If you are aware of other
changes, please let me know or post.

If you all are thinking about census microfilm, the following
