Indian Census Rolls, 1885-1940. M595. 
     These census rolls were usually submitted each year by
agents or superintendents in charge of Indian reservations, as
required by an act of July 4, 1884 (23 Stat. 98). The data on the
rolls vary to some extent, but usually given are the English
and/or Indian name of the person, roll number, age or date of
birth, sex, and relationship to head of family. Beginning in
1930, the rolls also show the degree of Indian blood, marital
status, ward status, place of residence, and sometimes other
information. For certain years--including 1935, 1936, 1938, and
1939--only supplemental rolls of additions and deletions were
compiled. Most of the 1940 rolls have been retained by the Bureau
of Indian Affairs and are not included in this publication.
     There is not a census for every reservation or group of
Indians for every year. Only persons who maintained a formal
affiliation with a tribe under federal supervision are listed on
these census rolls.
