June 5 Kiwanis Program: 1940 Census On-line Demo by Ron Whalin


Ron Whalin, member of Chatham-Madison Kiwanis Club presented a "live" on-line demo of the recently published 1940 Census. He showed how anyone can look up an official census document provided that they know the April, 1940 USA address for the person.  The image above shows the census record which contains Madam Bey, who established and operated a Boxing Camp on River Road in Chatham Township. The data is also shown for her son, who was the first Policeman in Chatham Township. The age for Hranoush (Madam) Bey is probably not correct.

All of Chatham Township records are in Enumeration District ED 14-17. The street names are shown in the records, but no street numbers are shown for the Township. There are 56 pages (images) for the Township and Madam Bey is on image 43, line 8.

All of Chatham Borough records are in ED 14-13, 14-14, 14-15 and 14-16. Streets and street numbers are included in the Borough records.

Volunteers are asked to help index records by name and some states have been completed - not New Jersey. Go to the official website to learn more: 1940census. archives.gov
