The 1900 census record for the family of Robert Oliphant is in poor shape. Some of the names have been taped over, I guess the page was torn, and it did not process well in micro filming. The ages and birth dates and places of birth are OK and this was the only record that gave month/yr of birth. Ancestry.com has two of them indexed just by last name because they could not read the first names. 22 June 1900; Census Place: Justice Precinct 8, Grimes, Texas; Roll: T623 1640; Page: 16A; Enumeration District: 27.
