Louisiana
Census - 1940
Using online images of the U.S. census (www.ancestry.com), I am
extracting the Pitre families.
My extractions include
the parent/s, children, ages, location, others at the
address, house value and occupations.
Questions asked on the 1940 census:
Address; number of household in order of visitation; home
owned or rented; value of home; whether household lives on a
farm; name of each person whose usual place of residence on 1
April 1940 would be in the household ("Ab" written after names
of people absent); relationship to head of household; sex;
color or race; age at last birthday; marital status;
education; place of birth; citizenship; residence on 1 April
1935; employment status for those 14 and older (several
questions); occupation, industry, class of worker, number of
weeks worked full-time in 1939; income in 1939.
