Ok, now I am confused. Mills is supposed to make sourcing more
consistent but it isn't! Yesterday I put in census records for
1850-1930 (all the years that have names and not just numbers). For
each year the source writer asks for different information. In some
years it asks for the "person of interest" and some years not. In some
years it askes for the dwelling and family number and in some years
only the dwelling number. All of this info is available for all of
those years but sometimes it asks for it and sometimes if doesn't. I
don't get it.
Are you sure you were looking at exactly the same type of Master Source
each time? Because I just looked at the 1850, 1860 and 1870 Federal
Population Census, online images, and all three were absolutely
consistent, asking for Page, Dwelling No, Family No and ID of person
every time.
