In the old days of genealogy, you would have to go to a genealogy library, look up a name in a printed index, and then get a roll of microfilm corresponding to that name, and scroll through to find your person (or just browse a whole neighborhood, if no name was in the index). You can still search this way. However, there are many places online with digitized images of the census, many of which have been indexed, and you merely have to type in a person’s name and location to find the image with their name on it. Ancestry.com is the best-known place to do this. Other sites have full or partial U.S. census records for searching online, such as Fold3, U.S. Genweb, AmericanAncestors.org, the websites of local historical societies, and more.
