Could someone please look up Fall River 1900 for Elizabeth Thompson in her 70's, possibly living with Eva Slocum . Many Thanks Gail

Hi All , I am seeking information from the 1910 Census for Herman Magnus and Dorothy (or Dorthea) HANSON / HANSEN . I have tried to find them with no prevail. In 1900 they were residing in Boston ,MA , and in 1920 they were residents of Everett ,Middlesex,MA . I checked both addresses in 1910 and they were at neither place (ie: house/street) They would have with them at least 2 sons : Frank , age 9 or 10 , and Peter , age 6 or 7. Herman claimed his birth place as Denmark , and would be about the age of 42 . Dorthea (or Dorothy ) b. Norway and would be at about the age of 37 ? (I forgot if she was born 1873 or 76) Any help to locate them for the year of 1910 would be greatly appreciated. Thank -you , Andrea B.

Thanks for very very much.

Hi, I thought I would repost this in the hopes that no one was able to do a lookup rather than not finding him at all. I am trying to find my ancestor, Thomas L. Gray (Grey?) age 2ish in the 1850 census. I don't know who he would be living with since I find him in the 1860 census age 12 with a McIntire family in Charlton and not his birth parents, William and Ellen.

Thank you very much. Audrey >> ==== MA-CENSUS-LOOKUP Mailing List ==== In the U.S., a census has been taken every 10 years from 1790 through 2000. 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.
