=== Why use a census?  ===


National Archives:&nbsp; [http://www.archives.gov/ http://www.archives.gov/]
A well-indexed census is one of the easiest ways to locate where an ancestor's family lived and when they lived there. You can also use censuses to follow the changes in a family over time, and identify neighbors. These and other clues provided by censuses are important because they help find additional kinds of records about the family.
