1940 US Census index progress
The 1940 US Federal census has been available for close to one month (next week) and an indexing program is under way to render the census searchable for genealogists. As of today (April 24th), 17.92% of the census has been indexed and the volunteer effort is going really well. Here is the progress for states that are noteworthy for Comeau researchers:
- Louisiana (for Comeaux ancestors): 8%
- Massachusetts: 5%
- Maine: 13%
- New Hampshire: 99%
- New York (for Como ancestors among others): 3%
- Vermont: 89%
