Yes, those are the same lists but computerised.

As for ancestry, it sounds as though you aren't using the Ancestry Library Edition, though of course I don't know whether your local library provides that. If they don't, is there a FamilySearch Centre near you? They provide access to both Ancestry and FMP, though you will probably need to book a visit in advance.
