1940 Census

So I've been doing some extraction, more specifically extraction on the 1940's census. They gave out badges for the states that you did and when I saw that I hurried and did some names for each of the states that were left to do. They didn't give out any more badges so I didn't get the rest of my badges but at least I have my blog to document it all on...so here's my badges
They finished extracting the census 3 months ahead of schedule, not bad for a bunch of people spread out over the world. So here are my stats: Arkansas 40 names; California 1600 names; Connecticut 40 names; District of Columbia 40 names; Georgia 40 names; Idaho 40 names; Illinois 40 names; Kentucky 40 names; Maryland 40 names; Massachusetts 40 names; Michigan 40 names; Mississippi 40 names; New Jersey 120 names; New York 40 names; North Carolina 40 names; Ohio 40 names; Oregon 40 names; Pennsylvania 40 names; South Carolina 680 names; Tennessee 4680 names; Texas 40 names; West Virginia 40 names; Wisconsin 40 names; Wyoming 160 names. That's 23 States, 1 District of Columbia and 7900 names total. Not as many as I hoped to do, but a nice little chunk to be a part of history.
