This is a website to get a census after 1930. There was a privacy law passed that the census can't be made public for 70 years, that is why you can only get it up until 1930.

Has anyone ever ordered a census from 1940 or 1950 or any other years? What was the experience to get it? Did it have useful information?

To my knowledge you can't order a census post 1930 until 2012...

Now I'm not sure I am reading this correctly but it looks like you can order a Census, for a fee, if you were on it or for a direct relative or minor. Is this correct? (I left my glasses at work today and I am as blind as a bat without them! ).

I called about getting a census after 1930 and it cost lots of money, per person.
