    1. Re: [TUCKER-L] Len Tucker, Ohio Co Ky - Probable error
    2. Yes, I try to take a look at any original image I can get my hands on. Sometimes I can make out two or three believable names from one entry :) I could buy the Levi as an alternate reading, but it would seem unusual for the enumerator to mistakenly write down something as distinctive as the sequence "Tennessee Georgia Tennessee" that was given in 1880 for Len/Levi's place of birth and that of his parents. I think this would be the most important evidence that this is not the same individual that was listed in 1870 with " Ky Ky Ohio". Does anyone have a Leonard Tucker in their family list? genielists@yahoo.com writes: > I think that LEN may be a misreading of the > actual census record.
