Subject: 1880 Georges census page 213
Date: Sat, 3 Apr 1999 11:13:40 EST


Here is a continuing series of the 1880 census for Georges township, Fayette
county; Supervisor District #8; ED #4, taken by C.W. Richards. It starts
with page 191 and will eventually continue thru to 224.
The following abbreviations apply: w/b = race (white or black); m/f =
male/female; Relat. dau=daughter, gs/gd=grandson or granddaughter;
sd/ss=stepdau/stepson; s/m/b-i-l=sister/mother/brother in law etc.; illig =
illigitimate; m/s/w/d/p=married/single/widowed/divorced/parted; x's are for
attended school/ couldn't read / & couldn't write. Anything with an @ sign
beside it means that I have verified that it is truly what the enumerator
placed on the page.

I have changed to comma separated text to save time. I would suggest
importing the text to a spreadsheet program such as Excel which I used to
record the data and then adjust column size. There was a large stain on page
213A in the area of birth locations and some were impossible to read. There
was also a stain at the bottom of page 214A in the name area which made it
difficult to read. I have tried my best to be accurate, but some names on
the sheet were blurred, the microfilm had some dirt, and there were sections
that were badly stained. If anyone recognizes any mistakes, please let me
know & I'll correct them. Occassionally the enumerator went a bit crazy on
ditto marks, especially in the area where birthplaces are listed. I have
great suspicions that many of these were wrong because of this. I have
finished Georges township, I'm working on German township, and plan to do
Nicholson & Springhill townships. After that I'm out of time. Hopefully
someone else can pick up the ball & go with it. Thanks to Betty for starting
this & hopefully more people will continue it.

This is page 213 A&B taken on the 12th.
