Cheri and the panel Melissa Barker, Bernice Bennett, Dan Earl, Laura Hedgecock, and Mary Kircher Roddy talk with Shelley Murphy about how to use the questions asked on the 1890 census and look for answers in other records. As Shelly says, "It's really not missing!"
Using the information on the 1880 and 1900 census plus records created during the 20 year period we can get a good picture of what the answers may have been for each of the household members enumerated on the destroyed 1890 US Federal Census.
Watch as Shelley challenges the panel to come up with ideas on what types of records can be used to answer the questions asked on the 1890 Census.
