Never used state census . . . Ancestry has federal census thru 1940, if you know where she might have been at different times (10-year basis). Knowing age would help a lot, as would knowing where she came from -- England, Scotland, etc, as there are all identified in the census and can be specified in the Ancestry query. Being on the left-side of the pond, I have Ancestry that covers US and UK. Yahoo Maps is great for tracing addresses in the states -- your address shows up on the west-side, about Greenwich Village, north of the World Trade Center location but south of the meatpacking district. > > > > bob -----Original Message----- From: sog-uk-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:sog-uk-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Theresa Green Sent: Wednesday, March 05, 2014 7:08 AM To: sog-uk@rootsweb.com Subject: [SOG-UK] query re US census search Hi - can anyone tell me the best place to search by address on the NY census, 1905 and 1915 please? I am looking for an ancestor, Christina Davis, who arrived in NY on 2 September 1905. She gave her sister's (Mary Davis) address as 255 West 10th Street, NY. Having googled the address, I can see it's in the district of Manhattan but I cannot work out where or how to search. I don't think its possible via "familysearch" and certainly not via "findmypast" (even with their "world" subscription). I've not yet tried Ancestry as I don't have a subscription - can't afford to subscribe to everything (so I tend to use it at the central library). Any suggestions gratefully received.

First, access the 10-year indexes by selecting ?Collection des tables d?cennales de l??tat civil numeris?es?. Select the appropriate decade, and click the icon ?Acc?s au Document Num?ris?? -- D?c?s (Deaths). The images are browsable, but not searchable. ? If you find an entry of interest, note the day and month. To access the entry in the death register, return to the above link, then select ?Collection des registres d??tat civil num?ris?s?, and drill down through the registers to find the relevant date. ? The process is cumbersome but can be worthwhile, as French civil registration often provides a great deal more information than English. ? HTH ?

Would it be worthwhile writing to the Mairie at Tours - or are there too many clustered round that city!?? ------------------------------ To contact the SOG-UK list administrator, send an email to SOG-UK-admin@rootsweb.com.
