Now that the 1930 census is online at Ancestry, is it too much to hope that there might be a enumeration district map somewhere online? There are descriptions of the districts, but unless you really know where the streets are it's very difficult to find the right ones. Thanks! Cindy in NC cwalker@camcomp.com

I've been using Yahoo maps to use their description to outline the districts I want. Some of the outlines are a little confusing, however I did isolate two districts I wanted to search. There were 50 images in one district and 45 in the other. I just start at 1, look at the street addresses, jump to 10, look again, jump to 20, etc., until I narrow down the area to search.

You will find lots of really helpful sites on the San Francisco GenWeb site http://www.sfo.com/~timandpamwolf/1930ed.htm Check them ALL out!!! One is the URLs found on the SF GenWeb site is http://home.pacbell.net/spmorse/census/ After entering the requested information you will get this notice: "San Francisco, California has been indexed by address. You can use microfilm series M1931 roll 2 to obtain the enumeration district for your particular address. You don't need to use this website to calculate enumeration districts in San Francisco." AND I just got this bit of wonderful news from someone who has done searching at NARA in Washington DC! "The M1931 is 7 rolls of film. San Francisco is in roll #2 and it makes all the difference in the world. IF you have the exact address, its a cake walk." So when someone finds out where we can see microfilm M1931 - Roll #2 locally - we will all be sitting pretty! Good luck!!!
