Here are my notes for pages 1 - 40:
===================================

Still no signs of any townships, name of enumerator or
other identifying info.

On page 155-A there is a note in the left margin that
says "Error" twice and there is an "X" through page
155-B.  The page is number 22.  Then, page 156 A/B
start with the same beginning total as was on 155 A/B
and also says page 22.  The names that are listed on
155 as far as I can tell are not listed anywhere else
in this census.  You'd have to sort it to be sure of
this.  In column A, page number, I have listed page
155 as 155-E to make it more obvious that this page
has some sort of problem.

There are no pages 166A or B on the microfilm (note on
CD I received to this effect).


Here are my notes for pages 40 - 60:
===================================

Here are my notes for this section:

on Image 191-A/B (page 56), the line totals do not
match the number of people per line.  Lines 2 & 3
appear to be flip-flopped.  On line 4, the total shown
is 2.  I accidently left this out when transcribing to
paper and picked up the 4 from the next line, which
was the number of persons marked.  On continued on
down the page, and the totals all matched up.  It
wasn't until I finished the page that I had left out
the "2" that was the total on the image.  If you
insert the "2" on line 4, the totals for the whole
page are off.  I inserted the totals as they were
shown on the image, even though they are not the
correct totals for each line.


Here are my notes for pages 61 - 77:
===================================

I have no notes for the last section, except that the
last page showed that the census taker was Philo
Biers.
