Have you looked at the 1940 Census yet? It became available in many places on April 2, 2012. It can be found on the National Archives website www.1940census.archives.gov, on www.Ancestry.com free through 2013, www.FamilySearch.org and several other places, all at no cost to the user. The index is being worked on and is available for a few states on different sites. Until it is, it is necessary to know the Enumeration District [ED] where someone lives. If you found them in the 1930 census, the 1940 ED can be found by going to www.SteveMorse.org and going down to Unified 1940 Census ED Finder.

Do you enjoy reading the many periodicals at Clayton Library? The Angels Program was created to provide subscriptions Clayton Library would like to receive on an “as published basis”, but that are in excess of the Library’s budget.
We are happy to announce that all remaining subscriptions for 2012 have been completed through the generosity of two of our members [husband and wife] and our thanks go to both of them. 


Would you like to make a donation to Clayton Library Friends In Honor Of, or In Memory Of someone special? Use this Donation Form.
