Hi ! I double checked the census and found that Ancestry had your father indexed under first name of "Raymon". I never entered that as a given name. The enumerator on the census sheet did not write a "d' at the end of his name. At genealogy dot com, click on "access your on-line data library" - "Census" should come up - then, choose the state. After clicking on the state, enter the name you want to see on the census for the particular decade. Otherwise, if you want me to scan the census sheet to you, let me know.
