Thanks to everyone, but I have pulled up many census pages in all parts of the country and they all have the numbers. I have not been able to pull up any of the ua, un, ca, or cn's. and I think it must have been a code number for the 1910 census. I have had several replies to my question and they are all telling me the same thing but try to find those abbreviations on the census records, I couldn't find even one and I bet you can't either. I tried by pulling up any males born on or around 1840 and did not find anything but the numbers in column # 30 or anywhere else. Catherine

Catherine, I found this explanation on one page. 1.. Whether survivor of the Union or Confederate Army or Navy. CA=Confederate Army, UA=Union Army (different census takers marked them different ways). Although this column was for veterans, many of the pages have numbers listed here which appears to be some "figuring" the census taker has done to tally some numbers and has nothing to do with veteran status. The same is true for the next two columns as well.
