70 years is a very good amount of time , by the most of the people affected are dead, and the living can glace back into the past. Cool to see jobs being listed as well, you can trace a families path from poverty to affluence and perhaps vice versa.
- mbustamanter 5y agoAfter looking at several records, it appears that Hispanics have a superscript 0 after the 'W' for white. Hispanic, strictly speaking, is not a race as people from Central and South America have different percentages of spanish, indigenous and in some cases african ancestry. I wonder how it came to be regarded as one in the US (I'm not american).
- not2b 5y agoIt isn't treated as a race in the US either, it's a separate question (so people can identify as white and Hispanic, or black and Hispanic, or other combinations).
