By law in the U.S., to protect the privacy of individual citizens, census records are not released until 72 years have passed. This year, 2022, the 1950 census was released.
My parents were married in 1949 and in this census I find them as a young married couple. And me? I was their firstborn but in 1950 I was not even yet "a twinkle in my father's eye".
