Re: 1900 / 1910 census records?
Josette SchluterJun 4, 2021 10:36 AM (in response to Jennifer Peyton)
Thank you for posting your request on History Hub.
We searched the National Archives Catalog and located the Population Schedules for the 1900 Census, and the Population Schedules for the 1910 Census, in the Records of the Bureau of the Census (Record Group 29) that may contain records of your great great grandparents and great- grandmother. For access to the non-digitized schedules such as the 1880 Census and the 1890, please contact the National Archives at Washington, DC - Textual Reference (RDT1) via email at archives1reference@nara.gov.
If you are unfamiliar with doing research in the U.S. Census records, we recommend that you check out the National Archives resource page on the U.S. Census Records.
Additionally NARA has a digitization partnership with Ancestry.com, which makes the U.S. Census available online, however there may be a fee to access the records this way. If you do not have an account, some public libraries offer access through subscriptions to sites like this, making them free to their patrons. Normally you could do the same at any NARA facility but at this time many of our locations are closed to the public due to the COVID- 19 pandemic.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and pursuant to guidance received from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), NARA has adjusted its normal operations to balance the need of completing its mission-critical work while also adhering to the recommended social distancing for the safety of NARA staff. As a result of this re-prioritization of activities, you may experience a delay in receiving an initial acknowledgement as well as a substantive response to your reference request from RDT1. We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your understanding and patience.
We hope that this information was helpful.
