    1. [TGF] Citing a whole census page?
    2. Rich Venezia via
    3. Morning all, Just a (hopefully) quick question. How does one cite an entire census page, or multiple families on one page? For instance, to note the amount of immigrant families living as neighbors, or that various different men worked as laborers in a candy factory, say, or on the docks? Does each and every family on the page require a different citation? Can one just do a citation for the whole page and leave out the "dwelling #, family #, xxx household" bit? I know that when citing other specific households, a different entry would be required, but what about when looking at the page as a whole to compare the family of interest in relation to other families? Many thanks! Rich -- Rich Venezia 908.392.1826 [email protected] Rich Roots Genealogy http://www.richroots.net/ https://www.facebook.com/richrootsgenealogy

    3. I'd cite the range of family and dwelling numbers, and leave the names out. Otherwise the same.
