Alfred P. Morgan 1950 census


It's been quite a while since the 1950 census was put online (2022-04-01), see the previous post:

The wonderful volunteers at familysearch.org have been busy organizing and have a search page setup for most of the states:

I retried looking for Fred Allen and Portland Hoffa but still no luck - and I know where they lived in NYC.

yes Fred, I am an idiot



But 60 year old Alfred P. Morgan, his wife Ruth and 2 of their 3 sons (Charles and Thomas) were fairly easy to find (line 3):

Here is the actual census page:




Perhaps the oldest son (21 in 1950), Alfred Jr. was away at school or working.

The family also still lives at 69 Brookfield road in Upper Montclair NJ.  But the brother-in-law, Bruce Shackelford (an airplane mechanic in 1940 ?) no longer lives with the Morgans.

BTW here is the 1940 census page for Alfred Morgan:

Now on the 1930 census we find Alfred Morgan with a different wife, one son and his occupation listed as Real Estate !  Interesting:

Finally a link to my Alfred Morgan page:

These snapshots of peoples lives are always interesting, especially if it is your own family, I encourage you to check out familysearch.org.
