Missing 1920 census sheets

Les Anderson Jan 21, 2016 12:58 PM

The copy of the 1920 Census that I have available to me (through Anchestry.com) is missing several pages. Is there a record of loss of these pages, or did they just not get imaged and indexed? If the first three sheets exist, how do I get copies to use? I’m working on a small town history project and the missing names represent over 10% of the town’s families in 1920. I checked neighboring townships and villages thinking that they might have be included with the wrong group, but could not find them. I did notice that Woodruff is also missing the first several sheets.

Hmm, that's weird. Have you tried contacting Ancestry.com about it? Has anyone else experienced this?

Also, this question is similar, in case it has helpful info: Is there any way to correct something that was transcribed wrong?

  One of my colleagues at the National Archives has additional information: From a census page view on Ancestry, the user can click on the tool icon at the left and choose "report problems" at the bottom of the list. Of course, the user would need to do this from a census page such as the one following the missing images.
