MyHeritage Census Helper\u2122<\/a><\/p>\n

Quoting from a press release:<\/p>\n

Just before the release of the 1950 U.S. Census in April 2022,\u00a0we released the Census Helper\u2122<\/a>, a tool that scans your family tree and compiles a list of your relatives who are very likely to be found in census records. In the initial release, the Census Helper\u2122 calculated a list of family members to find in the newly released 1950 U.S. census records as well as all available U.S. census collections. Now, we have expanded the Census Helper\u2122 to include census records from other countries, so people with roots in places outside the U.S. can take advantage of it as well \u2014 and we\u2019ve added some handy interface improvements that we\u2019ll expand on below.<\/p>\n

Use the Census Helper\u2122<\/a>\u00a0now for free<\/p>\n

The Census Helper\u2122 is a powerful free tool that offers help with census research and enables you to focus your research. Armed with the list it creates, you\u2019ll know exactly which family members to search for in census records.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The scope of the Census Helper has been expanded to include many more census records. Here is another quote that explains the expanded coverage.<\/p>\n

We have now added most census records currently available on MyHeritage to the Census Helper\u2122. This includes the United States, England and Wales, Canada, Ireland, Scotland, Denmark, Norway, and France. Smaller-scale census record collections, for example, those that are limited to a specific region, are not featured in the Census Helper\u2122.<\/p>\n

By default, when you enter the Census Helper\u2122, it will display the latest census collection that is available for your country of location, if available.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I ran the Census Helper\u2122 and had over 400 suggested records.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
