Transcriber's notes:
An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder not
the transcriber.
The ? marks indicate letters or words that cannot be read due to the
quality of the original document.
9 The occupation is written very faintly, but it could be semistes (seamstress?).
11 The ink is smeared on the second digit. The age is thirty-something.
16-21 Urquhart could be Urqohart.
28-34 The script style of the recorder makes the letter C look very much
like a V in other names. The family's name could be Vissy, Vissig or Cissig.
41 Goarlay could be Gourlay.
50 Carson could be Casson, and his age could be 21.
54 and 56 occupations are probably peddler.
58 Emborn could be Ernborn.
60 The page was folded at this line with some of the paper torn away,
and the age is missing. The occupation looks like it could be
grandchild. There is a hole in the paper where the first part of
the country should be. To the right of the hole, the page is very
dark, but the remaining script could possibly be States (United States).
61 The page is torn and the first numeral of the age is missing.
73 The last name could be Vusswill, Cusswile or Vusswile.
