Soundex Index for 1900 U.S. Federal Census of Maine

Back before census databases came online, we genealogists relied on bound AIS indexes and microfilmed Soundex indexes to find our families in the U.S. federal censuses. The 1900 Soundex index for Maine is now available at Internet Archive.

To use this index, find the Soundex code for a surname with the Soundex Converter, and then browse the relevant image collection to find the household you're interested in. Households are arranged by Soundex code, and then by forename of the head of household. Be creative when looking for a first name: this is the card for my great-great grandfather, Lemuel Dunham:

* — Indicates mixed codes continued on next roll.
