We're all getting ready to view the 1930 census, released April 1. My regional (Boston) office is opening at midnight! Evidently the only one doing so. Today's paper had a big story about this, and included these two URLs that might prove helpful. This one either gives you the Enumeration District for large cities, or tells you how to find it (i.e. what film roll). You need the exact street address for this to work. http:home.pacbell.net/spmorse/census The following is not up yet (it says "mid-March") and will tell which ED's cover an entire community adn what microfilm the ED's are on. http://1930census.archives.gov Reminder: to help in your 1930 census searches, there is a Rootsweb "City directories" list on which volunteers will find addresses. The NARA regional offices, or at least Boston, have hundreds of city directories on microfilm. Getting your family addresses nailed down ahead of time is a good idea. The 1930 census is largely unindexed, except for a few Southern states. JHall
