I don't normally do this as a volunteer, but I got caught up in trying to find them in the 1870 census yesterday - so much so that I only slept three hours last night and then woke up thinking I had missed something and started looking for them again. ACK! At any rate, I have these and certainly can't use them, so you and whomever comes along later looking in the list's archives are welcomed to them.

All censuses taken after 1930 are still confidential and the information they contain is not open to the public. The census from 1790 through 1840 only named the head of the household and the numbers of people in categories — 3 males over 16, 2 males under 16, etc. The census from 1850 through 1930 lists each member of the household and usually gives the relationship to the head of the house. It also gives age (later years give birth month and year) and place of birth (usually just the state or foreign country). The 1890 census was almost totally destroyed by fire so there is a 20 year gap between 1880 and 1900. > CENSUS LOOKUPS HOME PAGE http://www.rootsweb.com/~censlook/ > > ============================== > Gain access to over two billion names including the new Immigration > Collection with an Ancestry.com free trial.
