Yes, often it is just hard to read & the person that transcribed it may see it differently then what it may say, not to mention the fact that the census tahkers weren't always the most accurate either.. There spelling could be off or they may not write as well as others, or it might not even be info given FROM the family, could have been a neighbor or who knows what.... That is why you can't use the census info alont to prove your research...

Census Hi, I have a Census that I have looked up on Ancestry.com and the name is no where on the page. I am hoping maybe I did something wrong. 1910, Ellis, Cherokee, AL. William F. Tolbert-- b.abt 1861--GA. I went thru all the friends and neighbors also, and none of their names are on there also. Does this happen or is it me? Thanks for any help u can give me. Deborah Perkey Tolbert

Hi Deborah, I can read William F. Tolbert clearly on my HeritageQuest Online copy. He's on page 224A with his wife and 11 children. Do you want me to transcribe a copy or send you a .pdf copy of the page itself?

On this list, it will ONLY be transcribed & sent to the entire list. If caught doing otherwise you will be PERMANTLY removed from this list. How many times do I need to post this info ??????
