Here is a "Special Hint" to those who think they know everything about using the censuses <g>- If you are missing a male in the 1900, 1910 or 1920 census that you KNOW is alive but is apparently hiding out, check out the rolls of film at the end of the catalog. Since the following are not in alphabetical order, not every one knows of their existence. In 1900, there is a separate section at the end for each of the following: Alaska, Hawaii, Military, Indian Territories, and Institutions. There is a separate soundex section for each of these. In 1910, there is a separate section at the end for each of the following: Overseas Military and Naval, Puerto Rico, Alaska and Hawaii. They have not been soundexed. In 1920, there is a separate section at the end for each of the following: Alaska, Hawaii, Canal Zone, Overseas Military-Naval, Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, Virgin Islands, Institutions. All have been soundexed except the Institutions which are only one roll of film. In 1880, institutions are at the end of the soundex rolls. For example the last soundex roll of Missouri is called Y-520 through institutions.
