Position:Home>Genealogy> 2 census records in the same year?Question:Im a bit confused. im looking in 1881 and the family im looking at has 2 records? Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Im a bit confused. im looking in 1881 and the family im looking at has 2 records? Are they in the same place on both records? Were the records taken on the same date? I have one such instance in my family tree (1900 US census), where an ancestor was counted at home in Ohio in June, and also at a military station in Louisiana in an undated record. Where are you looking at, do you mean the same site is giving this information. ? Perhaps the transcriber for the site put the information into the programme twice, or alternatively the family lived on a the border of two parishes,towns,or counties, and each enumerator submitted the census return twice. |
