1920 Richford, VT, Census data

The data located here is my index of the people that are listed in the Richford, VT, 1920 census data. The data was collected from digital images of the Richford data from the CDs sold by Heritage Quest. I am also going through a review of the data compared to what is on microfilm to try to decipher the questionable entries (since it was not always possible to read the data correctly, given the census taker's handwriting and the poor condition of some of the census pages).

If you see question marks in the data, then I felt that I could not read the data with 100% accuracy. The more question marks that exist in a data item the less likely that the data is accurate.

You can get into the data in a couple of ways:

• You can start at the top of the census. From the top, you can choose to either look at the Richford Township data (Enumeration District (ED) 82) or the Richford Village data (ED 83). Those links points to links for the census pages in each ED, which, in turn, points to the links to each household listed on the page.

• You can start at the Persons Index Page. From here, you can select the link to an index page where a link to the person you are interested in is located.

• You can start at the Surnames Index Page. This page contains a link for the location in the index pages where the persons (who have the surname you are interested in) are located.

The data located in these pages are my best "guesstimate" about what the data, located in the Richford census pages, is. Many of the data entries were easy to read but many entries had items of data that were difficult to impossible to read either due to the poor quality of the data on the pages or because the handwriting became a problem. Some of the problem areas (such as names) were often circumvented thanks to the Marlene Simmons Richford-area publications (available through the Quebec Family History Society). But, there are still a lot of "holes" in the data where I couldn't be sure about what exactly was written on a page. I'm happy to accept any corrections that anyone would like to offer to make the data on these pages as correct as possible. In the end, you may want to go to the actual census data (on microfilm or as a digital image) to verify the data for yourselves.

Please note that these pages are the result of a lot of time and effort. I have made them available here as a service for those people who are interested in the people who lived in Richford, VT, in 1920. I do not give permission to anyone to copy the web pages onto any other web site, regardless of whether the site is free or a pay site.
