This database is an index to the 1910 U.S. Federal Census for the state of
Pennsylvania. The 1910
Miracode indexes record the following information for each person: name,
relationship to head of household, color or race,
age at last birthday, marital status, visitation number or family number, place
of birth, county, township, and enumeration district number. The information
found here will lead researchers to the location of their family in the actual
1910 U.S. Federal Census Schedules.
Miracode is a slightly modified version of the Soundex indexing format. Miracode and Soundex are indexes based on the pronunciation of a name, rather than the name's spelling. Surnames are coded and then arranged numerically by their codes. Miracode system was used only for 1910 for the following states: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and West Virginia. For more information, see the following article in Ancestry's reference library: http://www.ancestry.com/library/view/news/articles/2253.asp
The omission rate in the 1910 Miracode/Soundex appears to be greater than in most other indexes. Not everyone enumerated on the 1910 census schedules is on the Miracode indexes, as some names were missed or misread by the indexer. It is especially advisable for researchers to continue a search in the actual schedules, even when a name fails to appear in an index.
