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.

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.
