What can you find in the census?Census returns can help you determine who your ancestors were, and can also tell you:- Where your ancestors were living- Who they were living with- What their occupations were- If they had any servants- Who their neighbours were- If they had any brothers and sisters- What their ages were at the time of the census- If they had any disabilities.As well as giving you the above information, the fact that census returns are taken every ten years also allows you to track the movements of your ancestors through time as they perhaps move house, get married, have children or even change occupations.The fields which have been transcribed for the census are:- First name- Middle name- Last name- Sex- Birth place- Age- Place of residence- County- Relationship to head of householdWhy this collection is so valuableCensus records are valuable since they can tell you where a person lived at a certain place and time. Censuses were conducted by the federal government and will offer a variety of information, depending on year. Census records can answer questions like where your ancestors were living at the time the census was taken, who they were living with, what their occupations were, who their neighbors were, if they had any brothers and sisters, what their ages were at the time of the census and if they had any disabilities.Searching the censusThe golden rule of family history is to check the original historical record, or 'primary source', wherever possible. We have provided clear images of the original census enumeration books for you to view once you've found the right family in the indexes. When using census returns you should first search the transcriptions to help locate your ancestor in the census, and then view the original images to validate your findings. It will also help you see the household in the context of surrounding households. This is particularly important as transcribing an entire census is a huge and difficult task, and whilst we have used the expertise of our transcribers and the experience of key representatives from the genealogy community to help us translate the records, it is inevitable that there will be some errors.Next stepsWith the information you gain from these census records, you will have the information you need to search for vital records in the locality where you found your ancestor. Also, the fact that census returns are taken every ten years also allows you to track the movements of our ancestors through time as they perhaps move house, get married, have children or even change occupations.

FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 27, 1896.I PARIS, 150. ; LONDON, 1k; DEPARTMENTS 20..INHABITANTS OFMANILA NOTIN DANGER.Sensational Despatches Respecting the Insurrection in the Philippines.BUSINESS NOT INTERRUPTED.Operations of the Rebels as Yet Confined to the Remote Provinces of Luzon.INFORMATION VERY SPARSE.Major Arteaga Reported to Have Gained a Brilliant Victory Over the Insurgents.FOUR HUNDRED MEN KILLED.[SPECIAL DESPATCH TO THE HERALD.]MANILA, PHILIPPINE ISLANDS, Nov. 26.—Despite any sensational despatches to the ontrary, the insurrection which hasbeen,going on in the Philippine Islands has not threatened the safety of theresidents ofManila. It is not possible to tell exactly what progress the rebels, havemade, asIbeir operations, as yet, have been con-{MJ to the remote provinces of the island of Luzon. Business from this portis uninterrupted, and but little information of the status of the rebellioncan ba learned from the Spanish military authorities.CONTRADICTS SENSATIONAL REPORTS.The despatch printed above absolutely contradicts several sensational letterswhichJava found their way into European andAmerican newspapers from Shanghai. OnSeptember 30, a letter from Shanghai in theXewYork newspapers stated that at the urgent request of the English residentsofManila, thft!British gunboat Red pole went at fall speed - thither toprotect them from the danger that then. threatened Manila from the insurgents.c'A second letter froip Manila stated that six Spanish warships were there,chiefly occupied in defending Cavite (the dockyard and arsenal), which isabout four miles from Manila. They could (the correspondent said") see theships firing all day, and troops were being continually sent down there, sothat something serious was going on in that quarter. No one, however, appearedto know anything definite, as the Spanish had succeeded in keeping everythingvery secret. The question where the rebels got the large number ofManser rifles seems to have suggested the idea that the arsenal at Cavite hadfallen into the hands of the rebels. Of course the arsenal may have been takenand re-tten, but it is difficult to arrive at a distinct notion as to what hasreally taken place there.The provicces of Luzon, mentioned in theHEEALD'S despatch, are on a remote section the island of Luzon, the principalone of the group, and bears about the same rela-tion to Manila as Pinar delRio does toHavana. Earlier letters stated that the rebels were armed with Germanrepeating rifles, shipped from Japan to a point on theC058ti and that not a few Japanese soldiers hav e joined the rebels.

Thatthe Spaniards will not design them. selves to abandoning the Philippines toJapan or Cuba to the United States is quite comprehensible ; but if theydesire to see their flag float. there in peace and honor, radical reforms mustbe made. It is the best friends of Spain, that noble nation, so great in thepast, so heroic in the present age, who proffer this sage advice."SENOR CANOVAS ENRAGEDAccording to a Cuban Pamphleteer He Reviled the United States.[BY COMMERCIAL CABLE TO THE HERALD.]NEW YORK, Nov. 26.—A pamphlet is published to-day by a Cuban journalist, SenorJose de Armas Cardenas, describing two interviews the writer had with SenorCanovas, the Spanish Premier, in August last with the object of settling theCuban question.Senor Cardenas says Senor Canovas first proposed to give Cuba Home Rule, buthe (Cardexo) refused to convey the proposal to the Cubans. Thereupon, SenorCanovas offered to grant independence to the island after the insurgents hadlaid down their arms ; but upon being told that this proposal would only beconsidered providing the United States guaranteed the fulfilment of Spain'spromises, the Premier flew into a rage and said :—" A nation of shopkeepers guarantee the word of Spain—never ! The UnitedStates are the real authors of the war. If Spain loses Cuba they will have topay Spain Cuba's value. If they interfere, Spain will fight. They can onlyobtain the Spanish flag in Cuba after a glorious Trafalgar in front ofHavana.''INDEPENDENCE BY PURCHASE.[" PALL MALL GAZETTE " CABLEGRAM.]NEW YORK, Nov. 26.— Senor Jose Armas Cardenas asserts that, acting upon thesuggestion of Count Casa Miranda in Paris, he submitted to Senor Canovasproposals for the independence of Cuba by purchase for $100,000,000, inaccordance with authority given him by Senor Estrada Palma, President of theCuban Junta. Senor Canovas replied : " Let the Cubans first lay down theirarms, and then I will accept before the nation and history the responsibilityfor the abandonment of Cuba." SenorCardenas asserts that a firm of Londonbankers is willing to form a syndicate for raising the money. He relatesfurther that when he visited London in December 1894 as financial agent of theHavana City Council, the head of the firm in question alluded to a plan spokenof in London to advance to Spain $300,OOO,noo on condition that autonomy begranted to Cuba on lines similar to those that obtain in Canada.NEW YORK PRESS OPINIONS.[BY COMMERCIAL CABLE TO THE HERALD.]NEW YORK, Nov. 26.—In an editorial this morning the Times says : " The storythat executive business is the cause of General Weyler's return to Havana isall nonsense. His business is to defeat the insurgents and it is evident hehas not defeated them."The Sun, writing on the same topic, says : " It is an absurdity to supposetbat General Maceo's supplies can be cut off by General Weyler's announcementthat this is his aim. There is sufficient basis for action by Congressimmediately on assembling."ABORTIVE OPERATIONS.The Temps yesterday printed a leading article treating in very pessimisticterms of General Weyler's campaign in Cuba.

A. Hutclrnson and the Marquis de Montmort appears tohave been, so far as its cause is concerned, a rather amusing affair.Inquiries made yesterday by a HERALD Correspondent in Paris and Maisons-Laffitte, failed to find Mr. Hutchinson or the Marquis de Montmort. The formergentleman u,ed to reside at 157 boulevard Haussmann and also at 6 avenueLafontaine, Maitons-Laffitte, but at neither of these places was his presentaddress given. The Marquis de Montmort used to reside at 4 rue deLongcbamp,buthis present address is 14 rue de Phalsbourg. The marquis had notreturned to the latter address since Sunday last.The duel, however, was held, but very quietly and privately it would appear,since no rumor of any kind reached the police authorities at Maisons-Laffitteof the affair. The original copy of the proces-verbal was left at the HERALDoffice, and it recites that after an altercation and exchange of blows, ameeting of Mr. Hutchinson's and the Marquis de Montmort's seconds was held.After having taken all the usual steps to effect a reconciliation an encounteron the field of honor was deemed inevitable. The arm selected was the pistol,and the conditions stipulated the exchange of six balls at twenty-one paces atthe word of command. The choice of weapons and the management of the duel wasto be decided by lot.By the conditions of the duel the affair was to take place in the Bois deMarly, at 11 a.m , on Sunday last.The proces-verbal after the due], also in possession of the HERALD, recitesthat the duel was held and that the six balls were exchanged without result.Drs. Thomas and Bouteil were present to render medical aid.Generally, in these affairs, two balls, or even four, a-e exchanged, and thenumber of six shots would seem to indicate that there was a little more thanordinary feeling about the matter.And this is the origin of the dispute, according to the Gil Blas:-The lover of an amuseuse well known (L. de G ) found that he was being cutout by another who usurped his position. Letters were passed between the twomen in which compliments were conspicuous by their absence.An unexpected meeting one fine evening between the trio resulted in theusurper giving the " lawful" lover a volley of blows, sending him reeling tothe ground. The " lawful owner " left his sweetheart to M. No. 2.No. 1 then sent to No. 2 a polite note couched in these terms : " Monsieur,pour-riez-vous m'accorder unrendez-vous querque part, je désirerais vousparler d'une affaire eérieuse."The rendezvous was given and the lover No. 1 asked No. 2 to give him back hissweetheart, saying that he had spent a lot of money on her and that she wouldbe, any how, happier with him since he was very rich. No. 2, after a longtalk, finally proposed that the lady in question should come and decide thematter. This was done, and the fair one simply got into No. 2's carriage anddrove away with him.The lady, who is described as " cette charmante petite femme dont les jolisyeux et le gentil caractere Font si appréciés de ses camarades," is nowsuffering from typhoid fever and will probably have to be taken from the hotelwhere she is stoppiug to a private hospital.WHAT THE "TIMES"SAYS TO-DAY.Permanent Alliances Are Incompatible with the Settled Traditions ofBritish Foreign Policy.FOR TURKISH REFORM.England and Russia in Negotiation for Arriving at a General Scheme.[BY THE HERALD'S SPECIAL WIRE.]LONDON, Nov. 27.—The Times to-day, in a leader on England's position ininternational politics, says : "Permanent alliances of the kind contemplatedby the Comte de Chaudordy, and apparently hinted at by M. Trarieux, areincompatible with the settled traditions of our foreign policy, but the meresuggestion that such arrangements would be very welcome abroid is a curiouscommentary on the view oe our isolation which the Bismarckiaii newspapersaffect to take. While we cannot for a moment lend ourselves to foster in anyway such hop3i3 as are indicated in the French articles just quoted, we shallalways be happy, it need scarcely be said, to promote the best possiblerelations with our French neighbors, consistent with our duties to ourselvesand to others.

Newspapers are an important resource for genealogy and family history research as they contain obituaries and other vital record substitutes such as birth, marriage, and death notices. Family members may also be mentioned in articles reporting on local news, events, and social activities. Many articles found here provide details on historical events that are unlikely to exist in any other record.

Newspapers are fantastic sources of genealogical and family history information. Birth, marriage, and death announcements, and obituaries, are commonly used items for genealogy. However, ancestors may also be mentioned in articles reporting on local news and events (i.e. social, community, school, sport, or business related events).
