Steve, Thanks for the site. If you look around further, you'll find a site for genealogists. And in that is a page for hints to finding the secrets of the 1790-1840 censuses or you can go directly to: www.nara.gov/genealogy/oldclues.html Donna Claremont, CA X-Message: #3 Date: Fri, 16 Mar 2001 13:55:40 -0600 From: Steven Dhuey <walloon@mailbag.com> Subject: Civilian Conservation Corps Speaking of the Civilian Conservation Corps, the Depression-era public works employment program for young people, did you know that because CCC workers were federal employees, you can find their employment file at the National Personnel Records Center, in St. Louis? Anyone can request a copy of the employee's personnel file, provided that the employee is now deceased and/or born more than 100 years ago.
