The Fourteenth United States Census, conducted by the Census Bureau one month from January 5, 1920, determined the resident population of the United States to be 106,021,537, an increase of 15.0 percent over the 92,228,496 persons enumerated during the 1910 Census.

Despite the constitutional requirement that House seats be reapportioned to the states respective of their population every ten years according to the census, House seats were not reapportioned after this census.

census records of 1920?
Q. I'm doing some genealogical research and I've noticed while looking at the 1920 census of Natura, Okmulgee, Oklahoma where my great-great grandparents lived has their parents being born in the United States of America, but no specific state listed, even though the majority of other people on this census have the state of their parents nativity...my gg-grandparent's parents aren't the only ones that have the USA listed as their place of birth, but is there a specific reason for this that I'm missing? Can anyone help me out? the family's last name is murphey, from Natura, Okmulgee, Oklahoma in 1920...family members are Frank, Mary, Charlie, Clara, Pearl, Lucile, Fred, and Kattie. I've also found a record in seminole county, oklahoma in 1910.. [cont.]

A. My guess is that the key issue here lies in the fact of Frank being listed as Black, and both parents were born before the Civil War. In that case.. the strong likelihood is that he would not have KNOWN the location of their birth, other than "US". In the possible event that his birth was not correct.. and he possibly was born pre 1867.. there would have been no record of his birth.. no exact way to be certain of his exact age.. and he MAY have been separated from his parents as a child (maybe sold). You also have the possibility that he came to Indian Territory with family who was Cherokee (or Freedman), which would suggest birth in what was THEN OK (state in 1907), but not a state prior. It was where the Cherokees were removed to, from… [cont.]

What do you think Economy Not Reliant On Illegal Immigration ?
Q. Takes a minute or two to read.If reading is not for you skip this question.One of the arguments currently made for increasing the intake of immigrants and guest workers is that it is vital to the health of the nation's economy. If this were true, a tough choice would have to be made between economic stagnation and the social and environmental impact of adding further population growth on top of what is already too much. Fortunately, there is no real dilemma. The economy can grow in a healthy fashion with a low level of immigration. How do we know? Our economic history demonstrates this fact. Between 1925 and 1965, we had a level of immigration that averaged less than 180,000 admissions per year. Illegal immigration during that period… [cont.]

A. A. The increase of population from1900 to 1910 was 16 mil which is 21.05% increase. Using that as the percentage in the formula, and 76 as the initial population, the equation is: 76 e^.2105t where t is the number of decades past 1900. The discrepency could be a larger percentage increase between 1900 and 1910 than other decades. B. Using 1970 and 1980 gives a different percentage of increase at 11.82%. The equation now changes to: 203 e^.1182t with t = # of decades so the population prediction is 289.4 mil in 2000 and 325.7 mil. in 2010
