Ancestry.com Adds 15 More States to Free 1940 Census Index
Posted by Diane
Ancestry.com is opening the floodgates on its 1940 census indexing:
This morning, free, searchable 1940 census indexes for 15 more
states are available at Ancestry.com. "We ... are now very well ahead of
schedule from our initial completion predictions," says spokesperson
Matthew Deighton.
This makes 25 searchable states plus Washington DC on Ancestry.com.
The 15 new states are:
- Alabama
- Arizona
- California
- Georgia
- Hawaii
-
Indiana
- Kansas
- Kentucky
- Michigan
-
Montana
- Nebraska
- New Hampshire
- Oregon
- Washington
- Wisconsin
Already indexed at Ancestry.com were Colorado, Delaware,
Maine, New
York, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Vermont, Virginia and Washington DC.
FamilySearch now
has 31 searchable states in its free index (which also is searchable
via Archives.com and findmypast.com): Those include
all but three states west of the Mississippi River (indexes for Arkansas,
Missouri and Texas aren't yet completed). Eastern states with
indexes at FamilySearch include Alabama, Delaware, Florida, Indiana,
Maine, Mississippi, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont and
Virginia.
Since MyHeritage released its
1940 census indexes for Rhode Island and part of New York, we
haven't heard about any new states.
The 1940 census is free to
search at all the sites hosting records.
