Hi All,   So far, I'm less than enthusiastic about the 1940 census.  I've found several of my family members and the biggest revelation so far is who was living with who, and where they were living.  Other than that - nothing.  Well, my parents have disappeared along with my grandmother.  I'm 99.9% sure they were living in the Bronx.  My father's family were staunch Bronxites, although they did venture out to other boroughs for a bit.  I was born in the Bronx in 1941.  My grandmother died in 1942.  She lived with my parents. (Don't ask!)  I have my grandmother's death cert and found the correct cenus page through Steve Morse.  The family is not at that address.  I can't find them by indexed name, although I've tried various spellings. I'm stumped.    I understand there are supplementary pages - 61A and 81A.  Maybe they're on one of those pages, as I'm sure both my working parents wouldn't be home during the day.  Although my grandmother should have been.  Maybe not.  How do you find those supplementary pages?  The ED on Ancestry doesn't seem to include those.    My parents names are Bert and Sylvia Lazarus.  My grandmother is Henrietta Lazarus.  The address they were living at when my grandmother died was 84 W. 188th St, Bronx, NY.  Sorry, I didn't keep the ED since I didn't find them on the census page.    Any help would be appreciated.   Barbara Kiersh Jacksonville, FL

There are a Bertram and Sylvia "Lazarue," together with a 15-year-old son named "Grean," living in 1940 in Manhattan, on W. 135th St. No Henrietta, though. There're in ED 31-1115, p. 11A, lines 9-11.

Hi Mark, Thanks but not my parents.  I'm their one and only born in 1941.  My father was born in the Bronx in 1913, mother in Baligrod, Austria in 1910.  My grandmother was born in 1874 in New York City.  I definitely know my grandmother was living with them at that time.  My mother had a number of mother-in-law stories to tell.
