Federal Census Records


 
 
The 1930 Census was begun on 2 April 1930, with the exception of Alaska, where the official start date was 1 October 1929. The following information was included: Name of street, avenue road, etc.; house number; number of dwellings in order of visitation; number of family in order of visitation; name of each person whose place of abode was with the family; relationship of person enumerated to the head; whether own or rent; if rented, monthly rental; whether family owned a radio set; whether family owned a farm; sex; color or race; age; marital status; age at first marriage; whether attended school or college any time since 1 September 1929; whether able to read or write; person's place of birth; father's place of birth; mother's place of birth; language spoken in home before immigration; year of immigration to United States; whether naturalized or alien; type of occupation or trade; salary or wage worker; whether veteran of U.S. military or naval forces, if yes, which war or expedition; number on farm schedule.

The date of the enumeration appears on the heading of each page of the census schedule. All responses were to reflect the individual's status as of 1 April 1930 (or 1 October 1929 for Alaska), even if the status had changed between the official start date and the day of enumeration. Children born between the official start date and the day of enumeration were not to be listed, while individuals alive on the official start date but deceased when the enumerator arrived were to be counted.
