Table of Contents: Page 1 - Page 2 - Page 3 "Knowing that a particular census index exists can save a researcher a great deal of time and effort in the quest to track roaming ancestors' whereabouts. The American Census Handbook provides a one-stop reference to what's available in census indexes-in print and online. Census records, which have been called the backbone of American genealogical research, are probably the most used and among the most valuable of documents examined by family historians. This book enables you to check chronologically, geographically, and by some general topics to find the information you need."

Los Angeles Times Syndicate "Kemp's work provides researchers with the means to deftly find their way through the many formats in which census records are now available: book, microform, CD-ROM, and online. This book greatly simplifies the task of determining what is available and where to find it."
— MICHAEL D. KIRLEY Genealogy Librarian Los Angeles Public Library "In this multimedia time, many information professionals and researchers alike believe that print bibliographies are passe. Tom Kemp, a master of the indexing craft, once again demonstrates why such resources remain valuable reference tools. When you are trying to access a census, this handbook will start you on your way."
