If you’ve found that 1950 census entry for your family, make certain you use that information fully in your research.

Does the enumeration give you a new address for the family or person of interest?

Are there any annotations for your family’s entry that provide additional information? Some enumerators made notes on some individuals–particularly regarding their residence and work

Look at names of neighbors. Are there any that stand out? Have you asked other living relatives of the family of interest if they remember any of those neighbors?
