1940 Census

Oh, I sure do love looking through old census data.

So today, instead of earning any money by actually working, I decided to check out the recently posted 1940 census.

Unfortunately this census has not been indexed by Mormons yet, so I was stuck with sleuthing through old scanned documents. Kind of fun, kind of frustrating. But I did manage to find both baby Mom and baby Dad.

And the best thing was, the maps they used to create the census zones (and which I used to find the right documents) were made by Great-Grandpa Batterman!
