What Are Census Indexes?

Local and family history A-Z > Census indexes

 
  • Census indexes enable you to search records by specific features
  • If you use census records online you will be able to search the records by various features anyway, so separate census indexes are not normally necessary
  • Separate census indexes of names are useful if you are using census records on microfiche or microfilm, because these records are arranged by area and by street, not by surname
