1900 Census, Swisher County, Texas
Microfilm number T623, Roll #1670
Supervisor District Number 3, Enumeration District Number 11
Enumerator, S. B. Lofton
- * This enumerator seems to have had a habit of getting
the unemployed section mixed up with the in school section (he crossed
out numbers in one section and placed them in the other for some individuals).
If you run across an individual listed as “in school,” but they seems too
old, they may have actually been unemployed for the listed number of months.
