I love census records and have used them a lot. However, for older records in other countries I ave found church records to be the most helpful.

I love the census records and use them all the time. I use them when looking for people too. I take the date they were born and county if known and look for that surname.
On www.Rootsweb.com if you go to the broads and do the state and county. You can find census records online.

Thanks, Rick. That should be interesting. I'm not prepared to relinquish the analysis of an FASG, however. Do share and let's see how it works.

Dae,
Somewhere I have bookmarked a link to a piece of software that allegedly will do the tic mark analysis for you. I will see if I can find it and add it later.

Has anyone analysed the Federal Census for tick-marks? ES Mills has written three fine articles which delve into this subject. Also, I'm sure many would enjoy some handwriting deciphering. Some enumerators were real scribblers!
