1920 - Fourteenth of the United States

 

The 1920 U.S. Federal Census was the fourteenth enumeration of the United States population. While the official enumeration date was January 1, 1920 and marshalls had an entire month to complete their work, more Americans seemed preoccupied with the sports page! On January 5, 1920 the Boston Red Sox sold George Herman "Babe" Ruth to the New York Yankees for $125,000. At the time, the sum was the largest ever paid for a player. The 1920 census covers 95 to 97 percent of the population.

The world had just been hit by an influenza still studied to this day, the Great War (later called World War I) had ended, and the Great Depression and World War II were as yet unknown future events.
