How many Hexominoes?

I think that 6 squares arranged in different ways makes a hexomino. How many of them are there?

Try drawing the 12 different pentaminoes and adding one square to each possible position. They don't all count as many are the same, perhaps turned round or turned over. The answer is between 30 and 40 but you try to find it.
