Census Sense: Clues & Conundrums for Beginners

Patti Gillespie will be presenting a continuation of her program on using census data in genealogical research. Even if you missed the first part of this series in January, you will still be able to find valuable tips in this session.

This presentation focuses on federal census headings and codes, alternate federal censuses, state censuses, and their use in our research. The partnership between the national census website and the use of state censuses in revealing information about our ancestors is demonstrated in story form. The value of a research timeline is also demonstrated. This program will be presented virtually via GoToMeeting. Please contact Melissa at msmith@weatherfordtx.gov for information on how to join the meeting.
