Value of Censuses[edit | edit source]

Census records are extremely valuable in genealogical research. They:

  1. Reveal specifics about the family, such as names, ages, birthplaces. See Contents of Federal Censuses
  2. Locate the family in the very places where other records about them were likely created. (See Using the Census to find other records
  3. Provide clues that help you learn even more about them.

Helping you make the most of all these values is the purpose of this article.
