Click here to view Page 2  of this transcription ** Transcriber's Notes ** Please NoteA: An E placed to the left of the numbers above, indicates names that were crossed out and marked as "Error" on original document; all such lines were included in the transcription above. A notation at the bottom of affected pages states "Above errors caused through imperfection of 'Records', (signed) J. J. E., Jr." (Enumerator for this census). No further information for the crossed-out names is supplied in the census. Some names seem to be duplicates, others do not. Differences may be due to attempting to interpret writing bearing cross-out lines; caution is advised. Please NoteB: The handwriting syle of the Enumerator for this orphanage in this census was hard to decipher in some places. Upper and lower case "t" letters were rarely crossed on the "t" itself; in addition, tall letters (i.e., t, l, etc.) were quite short. For example, an "l" often looked more like an "e". Letters M, m, and n, often resembled W, w, and u, respectively. Caution is advised. Also worth mentioning here (and it is noted below as well) is the use of "DK" as an abbreviation for the Enumerator's use of "Don't Know" (i.e., unknown) throughout the census, and the fact that all Sisters listed above were of the Order of St. Dominica. Transcriber used the abbreviations S Car for South Carolina, Mary for Maryland, Virg for Virginia, Mass for Massachusetts, DK for Don't Know, App for Apprentice, OSD for Order of St. Dominica, and Y for yes. Columns above represent name, relation, color, gender, birth month, birth year, age, marital status, birth place, mother's birth place, father's birth place, year of immigration, years in United States, naturalization, occupation, months at school, can read, can write, can speak English, home owned or rented, home owned free or mortgaged, home or farm. Columns omitted are years married, number of children, number of living children, months unemployed, number of farm schedule, as all were left blank in the original census. Address of orphanage: Graham Avenue (no street number given; "Graham Avenue" is written at the top of the census sheets). This census was taken by Jos. J. Eiseman, Jr., Enumerator, on the following dates in 1900: June 8th & 9th (persons #1-50); June 11th (persons #51-150); June 12th (persons #151-250); and, June 13th (persons #251-335). 2 Might be Siesbauer, possibly Snobauer or Suchauer. 4 Surname might be Stenzer, Stanzer, Stanger. 5 There is interference from the tail of the z/g from the line directly above affecting the fourth and fifth letters in surname #5; seems to be an "en" combination in this location. Surname might be Ragensberger, Regensberger, Rigensberger or something similar. 6 Surname is hard to read; the tail of the z/g on the line directly above interferes with both the first and second (mainly, the second) letters of this surname. The first letter looks like "F" but might be "P". The second letter seems to be e or r (there may be other possibilities as well, such as "l"). Surname might be Feick, Freck, Fusk, Flask, Fisk, or something similar to any of these. There is also no "dot" (i.e., a "dot" one would see for letter "i") apparent in the original census for this surname. Similar types of interpretation difficulties occur for surname #12. 7 Might be Rittmann, Bittmann, or Pittmann.... 9 Might be Widemer, Widamer 10 First letter of surname is hard to decipher; remaining of surname looks like "?itenmoser". Might be Aitenmoser, Bitenmoser, perhaps Pitenmoser.... 11 Might be Schwartz. Age for this person in the original document looks like 28 but might be 38. 12 Surname is somewhat hard to discern; looks like "Feicks", "Fricks", "Frecks", Frechs, or possibly Fuchs. No "dot" is apparent for this surname in the original document. Similar types of interpretation difficulties occurred for surname #6 (this does not mean that surnames #6 and #12 are the same surname). Letters from other surnames do not interfere with surname #12. 13 Surname looks like Reszner 14 Surname is somewhat smudged near the middle of the name; letters at either end are also hard to decipher. Might be Bashlochner, Bachlochner, Bushlechner, Buchlochner, Bachloshner, or something similar to any of these .... 15 Might be Messner 18 Surname looks like Mayers, might be Mayere, Mayen, Mayer .... 20 Surname hard to read; looks like Hermann or Herrmann. 21 Surname is hard to read; looks like "Ruszs?r", "Reaszs?r". Might be Re?szer, Re?sger, Reiszor, Reaszor. 22 There is interference with the second/third letters in this surname from the tail of the z/g on the line directly above. Surname might be Budion/Budiore, Br?dion/Br?diore, Be?dion/Be?diore. First name looks like "Eeliz" or "Erliz", might be Eliz. 24 There is interference with the final letter (possibly final two letters) of this surname from the "g" in the surname on the line directly above. Surname for #24 might be Stick, Stish, Stich, possibly Stisle, Stiser, or something similar to any of these. 25 Might be Bischer, possibly Bucher. 28 Might be Brzeziosski, possibly Brzezinski. There is some crowding at the end of this surname and it looks like there might be one more letter at the end of this surname, possibly an "n": Brzeziorskin, Brzezinkin, etc., but can't say for certain. 29 Might be Kraus, Krans, possibly Khaus, Khans, Keans. (The tail of the "z" on the line above interferes with the second letter in surname for #29). 33 Surname might be Abbinger, Ahbinger. First name might be Aurelia. Name looks like "Arvalia" as written in original document. 34 Surname for this person is hard to decipher; surname seems to begin with "M", but might begin with "W", possibly "Va" or "Na". Looks like Meindale/Weindale; Meirsdale, Meirsdal, or something similar to any of these. There may or may not be an ending letter "e"; it is hard to discern where this surname ends and the comma begins (if there is a comma; some names are separated with a comma and some are not). Name may end with "s" instead of "e" 35 Might be Lang, possibly Lenz, Lanz.... 36 Might be Seifert 38 First half of this surname is hard to decipher with certainty; might be Schwarzkoenig... 39 Surname looks like Pistar but might be something similar: Pestar, Pastur, Pestan, etc. 40 Might be Greve, possibly Greer 42 Might be Broyer, Brayer 44 Might be Krane, possibly Kraus except the final letter in this case looks more like "e". 46 This surname is hard to read, especially the second, third (possibly fourth) letters. Looks like Gereinwiker or Gasseinwiker, Gesseinwiker, Gereinwriker or Gasseinwriker; might be something similar. 47 Might be Sicsion, Sirsion, Siesson, Siuson, or something similar... 48 Surname is hard to read; might be Bronzathy, Bronzarry, Bronzarsy, or something similar 49 Surname looks like "Roctar"; might be Rectar, Rother, Rethar, Rather, or something similar. There is some interference in the middle of this name from the tail of the "z" in the name directly above. 51 Surname is hard to read; looks like "Kenetal" or "Kesretal", perhaps "Kructal", "Krustal". (First letter looks like K despite the fact that "R" may have been written initially).
