Have you dabbled in census research for genealogy? Would you like to learn how to read between the census lines? Did you know that you can gain more information than can be found by database searching alone?

In this program you will learn how to browse census records for a larger picture of your ancestors’ situations, their neighbors, and lifestyle. Find out the difference between civil districts, enumeration districts, schedules and sampling.

Discover tools that will:

  • Match census records to geographic areas
  • Help you browse records that have not been indexed
  • Teach you what samples are and what schedules available for browsing or searching.
  • Provide resources for further study
