Connecticut Nurses Census 1917

Connecticut Nurses Census 1917

The Connecticut Nurses Census is a part of State Archives <A HREF="https://cslarchives.ctstatelibrary.org/repositories/2/resources/443">Record Group 029: Records of the Military Census Department</a>. The census forms may give basic details such as birthplace, age, marital status, maiden name, and current residence, as well as more specific information such as the name of the nursing school attended, medical specialty, and year of licensure. This census included the registration of both female and male nurses.

This index includes the name, birthplace, age, current residence, form number and box number. If a field is left blank, it is because the person who submitted the form did not answer that question (e.g. age, anybody!) People may request a copy of a census form by contacting us by telephone (860) 757-6580 or <a href="https://portal.ct.gov/csl/email-us?language=en_US">email</a>. Please include the name of the individual and form number.
