Joseph Martin Romeoville, Illinois The 1940 US Census Community Project was 25% after just a month and is now more than 30% complete. Here are a few additional statistics related to our progress: Nearly 100,000 volunteers have participated in indexing and arbitrating the 1940 US Census. More than 40 million records have been completed, representing approximately 30% of the overall effort. Approximately 25,000 volunteers are participating each day. The indexes to the records of six states are or will be published by May 9. These indexes include the following states: Delaware, Colorado, Oregon, Kansas, Virginia, and New Hampshire. The following nine states are also complete or nearing completion and will be available online soon: Florida, Indiana, Vermont, Wyoming, Montana, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, and Alaska. Three additional states are more than 40% complete: Mississippi, Louisiana, and Washington. Monitoring Progress As previously announced, the indexes for the states that are complete will be found at FindMyPast.com, Archives.com, and FamilySearch.org to help people find their relatives from those three sites. Additionally, a public dashboard is now available to monitor the progress of the indexing effort on the1940census.com. Progress can be seen for the entire project or by each individual state.
