12:15–1:30 pm           Instructor: Powell, Smith

Learn how to effectively use census records to reconstruct ancestral communities and place census neighbors on a map. This session will teach you how to map individuals enumerated in the census who do not appear on landowners' maps and may not have owned land. Reconstructed neighborhood examples will also demonstrate the importance of understanding that census order does not always represent neighborhood order.
