The 1900 census schedules are arranged by State or Territory and thereunder by county. In some instances the names of large cities also appear. The entries may not be in strict alphabetical order. Be sure to review the listings for the entire State or Territory before placing your order. Entries also include enumeration district numbers. If you wish to order the census schedules for a minor civil division or a certain ward within a given city, it is necessary for you to know the enumeration district number (ED) assigned to that place. Sometimes the schedule for a county or a city has been filmed on more than one roll, and the correct ED is needed in order to select the correct roll. Descriptions of census enumeration districts for the 1900 census are the 10 rolls of microfilm series T1210. The content for this census included the name of every person in a household and included the name and age of each person; relationship to the head of house; name of street and number of house; sex; color; birthplace; occupation; marital status; number of years in the U.S.; birthplace of father and mother; whether parents were of foreign birth; whether able to read or write, speak English, or attended school within the previous year; month of birth for individual; number of years married; number children born to mother and number of living children. 1,854 rolls.
