Cathy,

 

Some of the state censuses are stored at the state archives.  If you go to their website and look under their circulars, they have one for state censuses and this shows which ones they have.

Cathy Milioto, you got to give "grt grandfathers name. Do you only want a State census ie 1884, 1894 or a federal 1900, 1880?

can anyone tell me where to look for (if any) state censuses for Michigan? I would really like to know if my great grandfather was recorded on a Michigan census before 1910. He supposedly was born in Sparta Center in 1873.

Thanks Debbie, I think I've come across that online before, but lost the link. That's the famous lawyer lady and her parents....I just wonder if there's any more For(h)ans left around there or how would I even check? Only used to using Irish resources, don't know where to look for ones in Benton Harbor. Thanks.

There are 3 FORHAN burials at Resurrection Cemetery St Joseph Berrien Co. one a Elizabeth H FORHAN Mar 21, 1886 died Oct 6, 1968

Hi, I'm looking for any info people might be able to offer on Foran (sometimes spelled Forhan) family of Benton Harbor, MI. Elizabeth H Foran was a famous lawyer who visited her (my mother's) family in Kerry during the 60s, but died after, with no children. I'd like to know if she had siblings and if there's still some of the Forans knocking around over there? :) Thanks, J.
