The best way to look for people you think are missing is to go through the census images page by page for a particular location. For a big place, this is a "big" chore. Back in the days when one had no online indexing, I did find some families on microfilm by going through one Broome Co. town page by page. They had been missing from the printed census indexes since the names were difficult to read on the film. Having already figured out some of the family, I could fill in the blanks and finally discovered this large family whose names had been floating around in my research unidentified. Which reminds me for one census in particular I should go to Ancestry and see if the correct head of household is indexed correctly there. Maybe their indexers could not read the entry any better than the book indexer! We all do later researchers a favor when we inform Ancestry of the correct name or names once we find who we are looking for.
