Hi all If any of you are ever feel there may have been a transcription error in any of the census information or are just wondering if that is really what the census enumerator wrote on the page, please feel free to contact me at: Dtate03@cfl.rr.com I have a full set of all three census (1921, 1935 and the 1945) here at the house and will be glad to verify entries found in the transcriptions found on the Newfoundland's Grand Banks Genealogy Site. Let me know where this entry is found and I will gladly check it out for you to see just what the numerator wrote - Marvin or Martin.. All help is appreciated in assuring that the posted material is as accurate as possible.

I will email today in more detail. I expect that the Census taker mistakenly wrote a V where the T was in Martin changing it to Marvin. In my record searches I have often seen misspellings like this or transcription errors. My mother has noted an few family adoptions in our telephone conversations, I will call her and see if she is talking about this line or another and get back to you via email.
