Brief Census Recap

OK, so now I've reviewed the censuses that apply to the Kolbe Family: 1900, 1910, 1920 and 1930. The 1940 census won't be available until 2012 because census information is held confidential for 72 years. The 1890 census was destroyed by fire in 1921 (except for very few fragments).

I could research earlier censuses on the Hackenberger Family, but am choosing not to at this time as my focus is the Kolbe Family. I will, however, research those other census returns in the future.

My next series of blog posts will analyze what I have and haven't learned from the censuses.
