One suggestion for finding ancestors.. if you find them in one census but not the next - find the name of a neighbor who appears to be stable in the neighborhood. Search for them in the census where your ancestors are missing. Once you find the neighbor, look for your ancestor's previous house number. (Look on that page or the one before/after.) I found mine that way. The last name was listed with a completely errant last name, but the first names & address was correct. The last name was not even close! Census enumerates weren't always accurate, either!
