The 90-60 Census Workbook makes the mining of the name-deprived U.S. decennial censuses (1790–1860) not only feasible but at last fruitful. Tapping the Google Sheets environment, you can gather, organize, analyze, and share your findings. Pinpoint the most likely ancestors, identify their major family life changes, and have confidence in your research. Purchasers may make as many copies as needed for their personal use. This is a substantially enhanced adaptation of the Early Federal Census Worksheet and can reformat EFCW data. 14-day full refund available with transferred ownership.

The ’90-60′ offers genealogists, historians, and genohistorians the ideal tool for capturing, analyzing, and storing data from the U.S. decennial censuses dated 1790 to 1860. It is a tremendous timesaver and inspires users to ask all the right questions about the limited sketches of families the early federal censuses offered.

[Click to enlarge.] This subset of the full 195-column sheet shows the white females in the Robert C. Hanna household in Spartanburg County, South Carolina, from 1800 to 1840. The 90-60 aligns each decade so that a person falls in a similar range of columns in any decade. This helps you to quickly identify whether you are looking at the same family each time, whether people have been added to or left the household, and flags likely errors by the census taker. The oldest female in this household shows up consistently in overlapping columns until 1840. The 1840 record could be an error, or it could indicate she died and the head of the household has remarried, or some other scenario. Also, by looking at the column that is in every census from 1800 to 1830 (column BA), you can narrow down the likely birth year for this female to 1775.

These censuses present serious challenges to researchers because they only name the heads of households until 1840 for white and free, independently housed nonwhite families and 1860 for enslaved people. The real value of these censuses lies in comparing one with another. The constant change of structure by the U.S. legislature, however, makes the comparison very difficult to do without an interpretive tool. That’s what the 90-60 brings. This Google Sheets–based product is the next generation of the Early Federal Census Worksheet. See comparisons of the two tools below. The shift from Excel to Google makes it usable for a much larger population, makes it accessible from any Wifi-enabled device, and allows researchers to collaborate and share their work.

    Donna Cox Baker has done it again! This template is a great addition to any serious genealogist toolbox. The ease of following families back through time has become easier with the addition of the “90-60 Workbook” template. She also features a video tutorial that helps you get started immediately! This template is cross-platform, so it can be used on Windows or Mac. I use a Mac, and it works flawlessly. Great product!
