Hello lists, I wrote too soon in my original message on this topic. I've found a case in which at least some college students living in on-campus housing were enumerated at the college in the 1940 census. I did a page-by-page surname search on Ancestry of the two EDs for College Station, Texas, where the then Texas A&M College is located. ED 21-18 is titled " JUSTICE PRECINCT 7, COLLEGE STATION CITY, AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL COLLEGE OF TEXAS, AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL COLLEGE HOSPITAL." It has 26 pages/images. page 16, line 59 reads: "Here begins the enumeration of the College Y.M.C.A. and ends the Dining Hall employees." The first entry on the YMCA list was designated "head" in the "relation to head" column. The remaining 23 entries were designated "partner." The individuals were all men, all faculty or staff, and predominantly single. page 17: duplicate of page 16 page 18, line 4 reads: "Here ends the enumeration of the Y.M.C.A. and begins the enumeration of Milner Hall and Students with no place of residence." The first entry on this list was designated "head" in the "relation to head" column, "manager" in the "occupation" column, and "dormitory" in the "industry" column. The remaining 12 entries were designated "partner." The individuals were all men and single. All but two of the 12 entries had nothing listed for occupation or industry. As an NYC-ROOTS lister posted recently, "partner" was defined this way in the 1940 instructions to enumerators (http://www.archives.gov/research/census/1940/complete-instructions.pdf): "451. If two or more persons who are not related by blood or marriage share a common dwelling unit as partners, write head for one and partner for the other or others." CONCLUSION: Although the 1940 enumerator instructions stated that college students were to be enumerated in their parents' homes, the instructions were not universally followed. So, if you are determined to find a person who was in college in April, 1940, it would be wise to look both at the person's parents' address and at the person's college address. PJ Texas

Hello all, I was looking for my parents in the 1940 census. They were both attending college then and were living either in college dormitories or in sorority/fraternity houses. I did a page-by-page surname search of the entire town (Auburn, AL; 5 districts, excluding the CCC camp, which I did not look at; 227 images at Ancestry). One of the districts was solely for the university and was just one and part of another image long. Listed there were some faculty members and some house mothers or heads of hall for dormitories or fraternities, but no students. I could not find my parents anywhere in the town, and there were no concentrations of lodgers or boarders that might suggest on-campus or off-campus student housing. ## So, I explored what the enumeration rules were. Here's what I found for the 1940 CENSUS. http://www.census.gov/history/pdf/1940instructions.pdf page 24 of 88 "306. Persons to be counted as members of the household include the following: a. Members of the household temporarily absent at the time of the enumeration, either in foreign countries or elsewhere in the United States, on business or visiting. b. Members of the household attending schools or colleges located in other districts, except student nurses away from home and students in the Naval Academy at Annapolis, or in the Military Academy at West Point, or in any other training school or institution operated by the War or the Navy Departments or the United States Coast Guard. c. Members of the household who are in a hospital or a sanitarium but who are expected to return in a short period of time. d. Servants or other employees who live with the household or sleep in the same dwelling. e. Boarders or lodgers who sleep in the house. f. Members of the household enrolled in the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC). 307. In the great majority of cases the names of absent members will not be given to you by the persons furnishing the information, unless particular attention is called to them. Before finishing the enumeration of a household, therefore, you should ask the question "Are there any members of the household who are absent?" This is why I did not find my parents in their college town. My father was not listed at his parents' home in the 1940 census, so paragraph 307 is noteworthy. I haven't checked my mother's parental home yet. ## For future reference, the rule changed for the 1950 CENSUS. Here's what I came across: http://www2.census.gov/prod2/decennial/documents/00322994ch02.pdf page 11 (I transcribed the text because it could be copied and pasted only as an image.) "Colleges For the 1950 Census of Population, college students were enumerated at the colleges rather than at their parental homes, as was the practice in previous censuses. This procedure brough tthe enumeration of college students under the general census rule which prescribes that each person should be enumerated a this usual place of residence. Most students live in college communities for as much as nine months of the year, so the college is their usual place of residence. The 1950 rule for the enumeration of college students was adopted not only because it was in accord with the "usual place of residence rule," but also because the Bureau expected the procedure to result in a more complete enumeration of college students. Such persons were often overlooked in the enumeration of their parental homes. In planning for this revised enumeration procedure, the Bureau mailed questionnaires to all large educational institutions early in 1948. It asked for information concerning the location and size of the institution, the number of students housed in college dormitories, and the location of these facilities. This survey disclosed that many of the students do not live on the college campus; therefore, educational institutions were not set up as separate enumeration districts. The information on the questionnaire was used, however, to help measure the workload for each enumeration district." ## PJ Texas

I have a copy of the ALABAMA SCHOOL REGISTER from the Alabama Dept. of Education for the years 1935-1936, it has some of the students listed, also on some it lists their parents and address, their grades for the year/s and subjects – there was apparently 35 students in the class, grades 6-7, teacher Miss WOODRUFF (I can’t make out the first name - appears to be Miss M.Zuma Woodruff). The Lee County Training School was for African American students. located in or around Auburn, but has some students from Loachapoka.

Does anyone know if the following book is available from anyone? delilah evans Just before lunch, Crawford asked for veterans to come forward. They honored 97-year-old J.C. Mayfield of Opelika with a round of applause for his military service which started when he joined in 1935 as a farrier. Mayfield left the service and was called back up in 1942, serving in the Pacific Theater in World War II. Also in her 90s, Lexie Nolen Carroll from North Carolina said she left high school to work in the spinning department at the mill on a split shift she shared with her best friend, Dot Davis Lord. She said with the four-hour split, one would work 6 a.m. to 10 a.m., and the other from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Many of the stories are now in a book, which many saw for the first time Saturday. Jane Sanders Worthington’s book “A Village Not Forgotten” is a 143-page collection of stories about growing up in the mill village. Her book includes a timeline which shows that the first yard of cloth was woven at the Opelika mill on Feb. 25, 1926. “Interest in someone doing a book came to light more when we found out they were going to tear down the mill,” said Worthington, who lives in Opelika. She said there were not a lot of surprises in the stories submitted for the book. “We all shared the same life, one way or the other,” Worthington said. “We lived side-by-side and shared some unforgettable experiences in our growing up years.”
