1930 is the last available searchable census at this time.
1940 census has been released but it will take several months before the transcription is completed.
You will not find Charlotte Thurlow and his parents listed together on the census records. These statements explain WHY -
Facts you should know about the early census records -
All census records [1790 – 1840] prior to the 1850 census ONLY listed the head of household; whether male or female.
NO specific age was stated for any family member
NO place of birth was stated – city, state, or country
NO city, town, or village is stated – only the county; however some census takers listed the township

NO family relationship was stated – brother, sister, cousin, son, daughter, wife, inlaw, etc…
