Historical Cencus Browser

Researching the historic roots of our families has long been a favorite pastime. The advent of computers has made it a whole lot easier, take my word for it. The Internet has even made it easier.

Today's Family First site is one that features data that can help any genealogical research. It is the United States Historical Census Browser. While not listing specific names, it is a wealth of information and data on every census since 1790. Sorting the data based on the actual questions asked during the census year, the data providing can be very revealing, and interesting to look at.

Researching ones family roots can be a big puzzle. Sites like this help put some of the pieces of that puzzle together. Enjoy the site.

    I am trying to find my great grandfather's role number and trace his root. He was a choctaw indian born in 1866. His name is George Washinton Price. He was born in Paris Texas. His mom was born in Kansas. She was brought to Texas when he family was killed by the United State calvary. She was only 12 years old, her name was Matelda Danfort. I believe the White man gave her that name after the captured her.can you please help me. God Please.

    I am trying to find out information about my grandmother. She was a Cherokee indian born around 1915 on a reservation in W Va (I believe) and adopted by my great grandparents, last name Rice, who lived in Ohio. She shows up on the 1920 census but that is as far as I get. How would I find adoption records or something of that sort to research further?
