Read The Instructions: Details In The U.S. Census You May Be Missing

This Zoom event is presented by the Palm Springs Genealogical Society with guest speaker Christine Cohen. Christine Cohen is a member of the Whittier Area Genealogical Society (WAGS), the El Redondo Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, the Society of Daughters of Holland Dames and the Association of Professional Genealogists. A census record can give a "snapshot" of a family on a particular day. However, we need to search in the Federal, State, Veteran, Agricultural, School, Police and Mortality Censuses. Do you take the time to read the column headings, the instructions given to the enumerator on what to enter on the form or the abbreviation codes? We will review the directions that can assist your understanding of the answers.
