Please submit corrections & adds, but do not request further info with Post Ems, what you see is what I have. Check all possible surnames, and given names may be reversed over time. CENSUS RECORDS: most common format is name, year of census, birthplace NOT year followed by census state! Beware of other postings citing FTW and LDS as sources, much of this is inaccurate and plagiarized.

    NOTE: This is very much a "Work in progress." REGISTER and PEDIGREE views are not adequate for conveying conjectural nature of some of the lines. Check here often. This is not downloadable for a reason. The file is an aid for research, but not a substitute for it. Do not take this material and pretend that it is your own. Census records are generally under HEAD of household entry, so widows census in their entry.
