Every attempt has been made to enter this data as exactly as recorded by
the census taker. Even obvious spelling errors are not corrected. For
purposes of readability, zeros have been substituted for blanks in numeric
columns. Actual column totals have also been calculated for comparison to
subtotals and totals reported by the census taker and differences reported.
Overall the handwriting was excellent, however there were a few cases where is
was difficult to decipher a name. As a result, there may be some mistakes.
Most questionable names are flagged with a "?". There was some difficulty
distinguishing between "e" and "i", and between "o" and "a ". If you
find a discrepency between the original document and this data, please
let me know so this data can be corrected.
