About Dorothy Butler US Census Records & Model Tree

We've indexed 3051 free, proprietary US Census records for Dorothy Butler across 1900–1950, covering 49 states, DC, and 1 territory: Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Guam, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming.

Each record includes our Model Tree — a longitudinal reconstruction that links the same person across census decades using machine learning (XGBoost record linkage). Every link carries a confidence score: Verified (≥0.99), Confirmed (≥0.95), or Linked (lower confidence). This tells you not just what the census says, but how reliably we've connected records across time.

Every record also shows the full household — who Dorothy lived with, their ages, birthplaces, and occupations. For 1940 and 1950 records, you can view the original handwritten census page from the National Archives.

How we build the Model Tree. YourRoots independently indexes US Census records from NARA microfilm and links persons across decades using XGBoost-based record linkage. Each link's confidence is a per-pair match score from the model. Household corroboration (co-residents appearing on the same census pages in multiple years) strengthens the signal. The Model Tree is not a family tree submitted by users — it's reconstructed from the census data itself.
