what did the census counts of 1920 and 1930 show about the shifting population in the United States?
Q. What did it show in terms of demographics and what was its impact on the U.S. as a whole?
Asked by George Roberts - Sun Mar 9 17:00:32 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Both of these Census Years revealed that our population was shifting from an agrarian base to a manufacturing and service base. That shift revealed that our population was changing from a rural population to a urban population. The changes promoted, and at the same time, required that agriculture must increase in productivity per man-hour of labor because there were fewer people left in the rural areas to provide the ever increasing population with food and fiber to sustain life.

A. Kizie is certainly an unusual name! I even double checked the image to see if it could be Lizzie, but it is definitely a K.

Some help needed on new clues to ancestry ; Does Family Crest allow you to access 1841 Scotland Census?
Q. On this link, the page I'm looking for help on is the third link (1880 United States Federal Census Record). It says he was born in ''about 1873'', which sounds right, because on the 1930 Census, it says my grandfather (Thomas Madigan's) father was 57 years old. It says his father's name was Patrick. Does it say who his mother was? I know it says John Madigan was born in the state of New York, but does it say where specifically? Don't worry about the 4th link. I already have the information from the second link on this link. If you'd like, you could check this page, to see if there's any leads. On the 1st link, this may show where he was born.

A. Did you know that you can access a transcript of the 1880 census for free at www.familysearch.org? Have a look :) I'll see if I can find anything else useful. *** Edit I don't think that 1880 family with father Patrick is right. If the 1910 census is right John should be married by 1900 but I found John (whose father is Patrick) still living at home in 1900.

statistics homework help?
Q. U.S. Census Bureau estimates of the average number of persons per household in the United States for census years between 1850 and 2000 are shown in the following table. Year Per House 1850 5.55 1860 5.28 1870 5.09 1880 5.04 1890 4.93 1900 4.76 1910 4.54 1920 4.34 1930 4.11 1940 3.67 1950 3.37 1960 3.35 1970 3.14 1980 2.76 1990 2.63 2000 2.59 (a) Determine the least squares line for these data.

Asked by Erin - Wed Feb 18 12:23:26 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. (a) The least squares regression line is y = 44.392 - 0.0209x where x is the year and the estimate for 2011 would be 2.36 persons. (b) The slope is therefore -0.0209 persons per year. That means the average occupancy is falling by about one person every 50 years. (c) For x = 2300, y = -3.7, which is clearly nonsense. (d) The minimum occupancy could be zero, if everyone was a vagrant and no one ever lived at an address; or 1.0 if everyone has to be listed as living somewhere ! The problem with this analysis arises from the assumption that the relationship is a straight line. Obviously it's not.

Is there a way I could research an murder or deportation in Italy in the early-1920's?
Q. I was talking with my grandmother today and she told me that her father (Rocco Lozito) came to the U.S. because he murdered someone. She said he was in between the ages of 14-16 when this happened. I don't know all the details to why he wasn't prosecuted, but I'm taking it's possible they couldn't have prosecuted him as an adult since he was a minor. So he was given the option of deportation. Suppodely, everyone in his village (in the Bari province - it may have been Torrito) had to raise enough money for him to be able to move to Mexico. So they did and he moved to Mexico, and not too much later, moved to the U.S. I don't know if he initially moved to Brooklyn, in New York City, but that's where he'd eventually live most of his life.

The key here is the date he gave; and he has a social security file out there. And possibly a naturalization file. Your comment on deportation is very iffy.. deporting someone is normally forcing a person to leave, who is not legal in that place. Being born in Italy.. he would have been prosecuted there, not kicked out. If a murder occurred, my bet is that he never was charged, and ran. I don't think American standards of prosecution as adult or minor are going to be applicable. What census data do you have, and (again, buddy of mine.. you need to be seeing the full copy).
