1940 Newton County Census
Special
thank you to the following individuals who helped transcribe the
original microfilm for this index: Pat Armold, Susie Hall, Eleanor
Bailey, Joanne
Swart and Beth Bassett.
These indexes only carry
the household, names, relationship and age. For more detailed
information, contact your local library or search the web. Depending
when the sites upload records for your
ancestor’s states, you may or may not find the records there.
Registration is
not required to use 1940census.archives.gov, but you may need to
register to
take advantage of additional features. There are several websites that
carry the files - however you may need to register or pay for this
service..
Also,
as in all census records, the writing was very difficult to decipher.
Transcribers simply placed a (?) beside the name they could not read,
or typed it out as closely as they could to how it read.
