1930 is the last available census at this time.

1940 census will be released on April 2, 2012. It will take several months to transcribe all the states.



MICH facts you should know -
1837 Michigan was admitted to the Union.

Michigan did not require “by law” birth marriage & death registrations until 1867.

Birth records are not public records unless the birth is over 100 years old.

Parents' names were not recorded on marriage records in Michigan until 1885 or 1886.


1850, 1860 & 1870 census records do not show family relationships, marital status or parental birthplaces.

Step children are not enumerated as “step” children
Adopted children are not enumerated as “adopted”
Grand children are not enumerated as “grand children”
Orphaned children were not enumerated as "orphan"

1850 is the 1st census that shows all family members
