1930 Federal Census Team Transcription

These initial incomplete transcriptions are only temporary files to get the pertinent information made available sooner. Later we intend to go back and fill in the remaining columns to make full-transcriptions since that is the Census Project's ultimate goal. |
The 1930 Selected Columns will include the following fields:
