Federal Census Population Index



The following information was taken from the US Census Bureau. We are seeking volunteers to transcribe the Federal Census for all decades for placement on this site. If you would like to vounteer for this project, please contact the County Coordinator. As transcriptions become available they will be linked to the corresponding decade in the table below. Florida State Census transcriptions will be listed below the table for the Federal Census.

We are seeking a volunteer to transcribe the 1935 and 1945 Florida State census for Putnam County which can be found at FAMILYSEARCH.ORG Record Pilot. Please contact the County Coordinator if you would like to volunteer for this project.
