If I understand correctly the actual pages you fill out will not be saved.
It will be converted to statistical data and thrown away . The storage space
needed would be massive in any case. If electronic data will be available
that saves the data linked by individual names I do not know.
I'm not even sure the 1960's etc. census will be usable. Some of the recent
past census are on keypunch cards and the programs are written in computer
languages that everyone has forgotton (except my Dad and a few other old
programmers in mothballs) There is also very little hardware in current use
that can read them. I wish they would translate them now into more current
forms.
Anyone know more about this.
