It's 6 a.m., and do you know where your favorite blogger's been?
Yep, trying to get into the 1940 United States census at 1940census.archives.gov and at stevemorse.org/census/quiz.php. Fail. The NARA site doesn't respond, and the Morse site says "Page not found" for my San Diego page.
FamilySearch.org has images from Delaware posted. Here is one:
This is not a page for my people, but I wanted to be one of the first to post an image.
The sampling persons on the page above are Vera M. Spahn (she has a social security number) and Samuel Truax (he made $2300 in 1939). Vera's sampling entry did not have responses to the "married women" questions.
at 6 a.m., Ancestry.com had links to census page images for nine states and territories - American Samoa, Delaware, District of Columbia, Guam, Indiana, Maine, Nevada, Panama Canal zone, Rhode Island and virgin Islands.
Who will be the first genea-blogger to actually find their family in the 1940 Census images? I'm trying!
Update 7 a.m.: Judy G. Russell posted the first image of a geneabloggers family in http://www.legalgenealogist.com/blog/2012/04/02/1940-census-online/ at 6:28 a.m. PDT.
I'm so jealous! I'm still waiting for pages to load!
ReplyDeleteWell, probably not me--it won't take me to the page for the enumeration district.
