Genealogy (Love of the Hunt)

Morning, more on the 1940 census.   Ancestry.com has all states downloaded for you to search by enumeration district (this means u need to know where they lived).  To find out where they lived or their district you can check in the 1930 census, city directories, 1940 was not that far away, ask mom or dad.  Ancestry has also indexed two states so you can search by name ie. Delaware, Nevada, and District of Columbia is in process.  Familysearch.org is not far behind.   They have all volunteers indexing.   Tidbits:  the x by a person's name means they gave the information to the enumerator.  Have you tried to get an answer about the 1940 census,  but haven't been able to get thru?  Tomorrow is free genealogy question Friday.   I am sure we all have questions.  cg
