census help

I am trying to order from the FHC a copy of a page from the 1930 census because the copy on ancestry is blurry in the right side. Can someone help me identify from the card catalogue what roll of film would have it:

1920 Bronx, NY; Bronx Assembly District 4, enumeration district no. 250, line 35, Road: Clinton Ave.; name Mary Limongelli. Unfortunately, the sheet no. is a blur so I can't tell you that.

I would like to be able to get a clear copy to read the name of their job and where they worked. It is too blurry on ancestry.com.

Thanks!

Thanks, Tom! Actually, here is where I am stuck, the FHC card catalogue says this: www.familysearch.org/E...umns=*,0,0

I am not sure how to discern which roll to tell them to pull up. Should I tell them the roll number that you provided above? The part that says T625?

Is T625-1136 a soundex code? Would this be the right film to ask for?

Looks like it would be the correct one to order. There is a toll free number for the Salt Lake FHC. Why not call them and they will direct you. I have found them very helpful. Let me know if that helps.
