Can someone PLEASE tell me on the 1910 (Franklin Co.), census, what the numbers 9,10,11, 15, 16, &19 through 32 ask for? Even enlarging them, I can not read what it ask. I can pretty well guess at the others. Thank you all so much for all the help. Sincerely, Kay Music (pert near blind, and won't give up!) <smile>

Kay, I appreciate you sight problems... my eyes continue to get worse. Here is a place you can view, with Adobe Reader, the census schedules, free. Adobe Reader allows you the increase the magnification, so that the columns are easier to read. Or you can download them and print them out. http://www.ancestry.com/save/charts/census.htm Good luck.
