Hi I also have had problems with the people who transcribe the census records but please remember they are only human like we are and sometimes the handwriting on these census records can be hard to read. Also they put in many hours of work on these records. That is why it always pays to check out any and all possibilities on the indexes. Just so you know my great uncle Mac McNutt has been missread as Mae McNutt and after looking at the cencus records I can see how they would think that. His real name was Peter Pasco McNutt but he was known as Mac or Pete. So when looking at census records also try using nick names that family members went by. love fern genealogy is my hobby......crafts are my life _________________________________________________________________ FREE pop-up blocking with the new MSN Toolbar – get it now! http://toolbar.msn.click-url.com/go/onm00200415ave/direct/01/
