[or-roots] Progress report on 1940 census

[Anne Comer]

In 1940 my family was in Portland but I have no idea what enumeration  
district, so that is an impossibility for now. I'll wait until I can  
search by name.  But, can anyone come up with an answer to this:  I  
was born in Waldport which had (and still does have) a very small  
population, easily searched. I wanted to find my grandfather.  So I  
went to Oregon, Lincoln County and looked for Waldport under the list  
of populated places.  It isn't there.

disease, avalanches and a thousand tempests and floods.
But He cannot save them from fools."    --  John Muir
