Census Records

An official count or survey of a population, typically recording various details of individuals.

1920 US Census Data Sheet/Isaacson.jpg

Erick Isaacson is now 60 and he and his family are still living at their Arkwright residence. Now the Census shows only four children and the name of the youngest daughter has changed from Lillian in the last census to Lydia (the age change is consistent with the age of the youngest daughter at the last census and we believe this is the same person). Erick Isaacson is now listed as a janitor, his oldest son Rudolph, 33, is an engineer and his youngest son Harry, 26, is a bricklayer. Middle daughter Florence, 22, is a clerk. All the children are still living at home. 

1930 US Census Data Sheet/Isaacson

This 1930 record shows Erick and Jennie Isaacson in their later years. Erick is no longer listed as the head of household-his daughter Florence is now the head of the household. And the family has added another family member, a "half brother" named Harry Anderson who was a bricklayer and living with the Isaacsons. The Isaacsons are still living at 899 Arkwright. Erick Isaacson passed away on January 19, 1934.

This is the first of four US Census sheets that contain information about Erick Isaacson. Isaacson was a stonemason who was born in Sweden. His wife Jennie, also a native of Sweden, was two years younger than he was and they would go on to have a total of five children, along with a sixth "half-brother" named Harry Anderson who later lived with them. In the 1900 Census, Isaacson was 40 years old and he and his family were living at 654 Fred Street in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
