there are a couple free that people submit info to. Be advised that if no one submitted info you may not find any info that you are looking for. Maybe in the census for 1880 at familysearch.org. Rootsweb.com is free.
You can go to the library and use ancestry and heritagequest for free. Both of those cost if you use them at home.
Happy hunting

I'd say www.familysearch.org. It is the free site run by the Mormon church.
