Hi Jenny,
 
I made the decision to do 1800 to 1899.  The purists say
1801 to 1900 is correct.  However, I celebrated the
milennium on Dec. 31, 1999 - Jan. 1, 2000 along with folks
all over the world.  Not much happened the next year.

TMSers,
We are having the unending debate about search dates for
centuries.
For 19th century, what do you enter?
1800 to 1899
1801 to 1900
1800 to 1900
Interested to hear your thoughts,
 
Jenny Wilker
 
 
Avanti!
