** Transcriber's Remarks **
Please Note: Enumerator for this census was quite consistent in
forming his lowercase "n" as "u", and both the upper and lowercase "M", "m",
as "W" and "w", respectively. If either of these letters are coupled with
an i, u, misformed o, e, or a, etc., the interpretation can be quite tricky.
In addition, occasionally a lowercase "s" is left open at its base resembling
a lowercase "r".
The columns above represent name, relation, birth month, birth year, age,
birthplace of this person, birthplace of father of this person, birthplace
of mother of this person, year of immigration to the United States, years
in the United States, Naturalization, occupation, months not employed,
months attended school, can read, can write, can speak English, owned or
rented, owned free or mortgaged, home or farm.
Columns omitted in the above transcription include color or race, sex,
whether married, single, widowed, or divorced, number of years married,
mother of how many children, children still living, and number of farm
schedule. All persons listed above were white and female (except for
persons listed on lines 20 & 21; please see notes below); all were listed
as "S" (single), except for person on line 21 (please see note below). For
columns re number of children, children still living, and farm schedule, no
entries were made in the original document for any of the persons listed
above.
Transcriber made "relation" column for Sisters above uniform to read "Sisters
of Ch". In the original document, some of the Sisters were listed as being
"Sisters of Charity", some as being "Sisters of Ch", others as being "Sisters
of Chy", "Sisters of Chay", and so on. Also, in the original document, some of
the children are listed as "Orphans"; the final "s" was dropped in each case
for this transcription. Transcriber also abbreviated Pennsylvania as Penn,
Massachusetts as Mass, Prus. Poland as Prus Pol, Connecticut as Conn., Mother
Superior as Mother Sup.
