Census taker
and transcriber's notes:
2-2: could the surname really have been "Stewarts"?
3-6: Baby Charles was born in January 1870
11-11: Surname difficult to decipher, might be Blackford?
12-12: Baby was born in May 1870
18-15: Surname looks like Mudeventer but might be incorrect
31-22: Surname might also be Stesson or Stetson?
41-27: Baby was born in December
43-28: Baby was born in Oct (but says age 3 months)
45-30: Surname might also be Demaux
55-40 through 57-42 census taker noted this was the "Basswood Island
Stone Quarry".
Transcriber's Note: Basswood Island supplied much of the durable Brownstone
used in construction of multi-story buildings before 'skyscraper' building
technology began, circa 1905. Many "row houses" in the historic
Summit Ave district of St. Paul MN, government and commercial buildings throughout
Mpls, Chicago, Milwaukee and elsewhere were built from this durable building
material.
