I wanted to share a tip. When you attach census records to your family tree, don't forget to look at everyone who lived in the household. In some instances, other relatives lived with them who won't get attached to the family tree automatically, like brothers-in-law, a mother-in-law, or even nieces and nephews. Also, some "boarders" are actually relatives, but are not listed as such.
The other day, I thought about going back through all the census records that were attached to my family tree to see who the neighbors were (maybe they are in-laws or other relatives) and to see if I could find any other clues into my ancestors lives and felt like I hit the jackpot. I could not find a whole family of siblings in the 1920 census. I had thought maybe they were off fighting in World War I. I ended up finding the four missing siblings living with one of their sisters and her husband and family! I am definately going to go back and look through all the census records to see if I can find any other ancestors that are hiding. LOL
