[Ldsoss] Alternate way of searching genealogy...

[Russell Hltn]

True.  But by using coordinates, one can then check for who was in the
same area on the next census.  Page count only helps in comparing that
one census.

Besides, at some point there has to be two different people who are
very close to each other, but ended up being interviewed by different
census takers and so are many pages apart.
