Thanks for all the help. I found George in the 1870 census. Definitely White. Had the same mo/year birthday. I assume that Munroe T. Smith , the enumerator just goofed when he copied his notes.

I made an error in the following: the last named child was born March 1900 and was thus 2 months old. New related matter. There is a project to transcribe all census records and post them to US Gen Web. Many volunteers are needed. More like me to transcribe the data. Also needed are proof readers. Details available at http://www.rootsweb.com~census . If some will volunteer to proof my sheets, I will send the transcribed data along with the images I am using. For everyone's info, Ancestry.com is in the process of posting all US censuses that have been released. They have the complete 1790 census, most of 1900 and a good part of 1920. Unfortunately the 1920 is only through Marshall co at present. They have committed to have ALL U.S. Censuses available by mid summer. I have been asked to post what I have done. I am on the sixth page of e.d. 134 which is Somerville. There are 21 e.d.'s for Morgan Co for 1900. I can do about one sheet per day, Thus We need your help.

Someone once told me that this book is not the book that the census taker carried around, house to house, but a copy of that list. If this is so, we know how we all make mistakes transcribing our notes. I took a college course on researching and that was one of the main rules.."Do the notes neatly and don't recopy them". Of course, we were supposed to carry a notebook with all the correct forms for our notes...most of us ended with spiral notebooks and we recopied our heads off! Back to the census, I think this is the way people were missed...he would turn two pages at once...and missed a bunch! In this case, I think he just started putting checks in the wrong columns...what were the following family? B or W?? Carleen

Hi, I finally found my ancestors. I lost them around 1860 in Tennessee. They didn't show up in Tennesse again til 1900 in Shelby County (City of Memphis), TN. I always wondered where they went. Finally, I found a 1910 TN census record that stated A. J. Tennison was born in Alabama. How wonderful to find them when I used the 1880 soundex for Alabama!! I don't know how long they stayed in Alabama. I would love to learn more. Anyone have any ideas about my next steps in Morgan County, Alabama? I have this: 1880 Alabama Census (soundex) Vol 19 ED 273 Sheet 4 Line 24 Morgan Co. Decatur (city), Alabama A.J. Teneson (Andrew Jackson Tennison) White Male 37 years old Born Tennessee Sarah wife 43 TN Mary E. daughter 19 TN Lydda daughter 18 TN P. daughter 15 TN Absolum son 12 TN ( he changed his name to Andrew Jackson Jr) Edward son 12 TN Nora daughter 8 Ala Alex son 3 Ala
