@Keepapitchinin The BYU Record Linking Lab has linked together census records for those years. The precision for those years are lower than what we get when linking census records in the 1900s but if you need possible matches, these links would provide a place to start.

I'd had students asking about this in class and this was really helpful to read. I drove by a Gamestop with our kids today and wished I had read this before then to tell them about it.

@sportseconprof @causalinf I think Dusty would get my vote too. I love having two brothers that do economics. We should have all discovered our love for economics earlier so we could have talked about it in high school.

@causalinf It was such a great experience to present to your class. Thanks for setting that up. It was also fun to create some links on your family tree.

@Kasey_Buckles @causalinf Reading your note meant a lot to me just now. I hope our Census Tree will create this same experience for lots of people.

This is a fantastic paper. They use biometric data to create a massive training set. They do a bunch of exercises that should really advance the frontier in record linking.
Doing research with linked administrative records? Want to learn a better way to manage your data integration/buy yourself more statistical power? Check out my new working paper with Matt Gross!
