Thanks for that, Kite. It works for me too. I found that it would try to tell me it had no matches at first, but if I kept typing it would eventually find the right place after it saw more of the address.

Also, it took me a moment to realize that after the search stopped I had to click on the election district number. (Duh.)

There are an incredibly annoying number of records where they simply wrote something like "nobody home". I suppose it must have been in their instructions. Why?! I don't remember seeing that in other censuses. I must be missing something.

Glad you found some of your own!

EDIT:
I'm just marvelling at the number of 3-year-olds to be found (myself among them). This is the post-war baby boom that, a decade later, brought about excruciating crowding and "double-sessions" (split days) for us in high school.
