Researching with Census Records

with KERRI TANNENBAUM

Unlock your family’s past by digging into census records. We’ll explore the fundamentals of using census records, including federal, state, and other censuses. You’ll learn how census records have evolved over time, how to locate and interpret the records, and how to use the information to build your family tree and trace ancestors across multiple generations.

Forum member and professional genealogist Kerri Tannenbaum is a graduate of Boston University’s Certificate Program in Genealogical Research and the ProGen Peer Study Groups. A recipient of many awards from the National Genealogical Society, she serves as contributing editor of the Forum Newsletter. She also runs her own genealogy company, Family Dot Connector.
