** Transcriber's Remarks **

1 The exact name of this orphanage was not known at the time of this 
 transcription; its name as given in the census is "Thecla." ("period" 
 included).  It is possible that this is an abbreviation, on the part of 
 the Enumerator, for a name such as '(the) Clarkstown Orphanage', or 
 something similar. 

Columns above represent Last name, first name, relation, gender, month of
birth, year of birth, age, marital status, years married, number of
children born, number of children alive, birthplace, birthplace of father,
birthplace of mother, year immigrated to U.S., years in U.S.,
naturalization, months unemployed, months in school.

Columns omitted were race as all were white; education as all adults, and
children listed as in school, could read, write and speak English; and
Ownership of Home as information only pertained to #1.

Transcriber abbreviated Connecticut as Conn, Massachusetts as Mass, and
Washington, DC as Wash DC.
