Census for Walnut Grove District # 69, Sheet # 1. His Wife is Margarette, children Milton, Walter, Schrilda and Malinda.The copy of the census record I am viewing on rootsweb is very blurry and all I can make out is their names. Would someone have a copy that they can read the rest of the information listed on the sheet? I would appreciate any further information. I would also appreciate the information on the same census for George Bussel, Wife Francis Childrens names I can't make out. Thank You Donnie Stokes
