Ancestry.com has decided to make the 1940 census
mages and index—which will be on
he site after the 1940 census is opened next year for research—free to
earch and view through 2013.
hat’ll be more than 3.8 million images with 130 million records.
ven better, they’ll be indexed by 45 fields, meaning you’ll be able to
earch on the name, street address, county, state, parents’ birthplaces
nd more.
he records won’t be on
Ancestry.com right when the census is
eleased April 2, 2012. Ancestry.com’s press release says they’ll
ommence “streaming onto the website in mid-April 2012.”
an’t wait until mid-April? The record images will be available first on the
ational Archives’ website, but they won’t be searchable right away by name.
