At the end of this text, just before the table, I will add updates. - - - To The Updates



- - - To The Table

I opened the manuscript page for Richard Tolin to confirm my feeling that he was, in fact, Tobin. The page began with Patrick Sullivan ID #100, his wife Nano, and their three daughters. Following these was a long list of men, Irish and not, listed under Relationship to Head of Household as variously Cousin, Brother, and mostly Servant. These men did not live with Patrick, nor were they his servants.
Though listed as Servant, they were, in fact, Patrick's employees - a more appropriate term than Servant - and were busily working out on the range. Their occupations were listed in the manuscript. One was a farmer, the rest were sheepmen. The relatives may have been employees, or they may have lived with Pat, or they may have used his home as their address.
Brother, Wife, etc have meaning only on a page in manuscript order, and are useless in the alphabetically sorted 1900 and 1920 census indexes.
While we are discussing this Patrick Sullivan, I must mention that on some manuscript pages various Patrick Sullivan entries were numbered sequentially. I believe I saw 1, 2, & 3. This Patrick, whether numbered or not I don't remember, unfortunately didn't make the cut, so I've added him to the list.

To restore a little of the geographical integrity of the manuscript, I list here the names of Pat's employees: John Sullivan - Brother, Mark Sullivan - Cousin, Jerry Sullivan - Cousin, Richard Tobin, Patrick Sullivan - Patrick #3, Timothy Downey, John Driscoll, John Hickey, Michael Lynch, John O'Leary, Jeremiah Donovan. These, Pat, his family, plus non-Irish employees take up nearly the whole manuscript page.

The manuscript pages have been scribbled, as if someone has reviewed them and marked them up in the process. This does nothing to enhance readability. As an example, see Eugene McCarthy C00ID #30. Eugene, like Pat Sullivan, is listed with a number of Servants (Employees). I have been told that the scribbles, statistical in nature, were done at census headquarters where the interest was not in individuals but in gross numbers.

One manuscript page (for John C. Renfro and John Ford) is for the near down town area. It includes Alfred Mokler, Publisher; Waiters; Dish Washers; Barbers; Mr. Renfro, Gambler; Mr. Ford, Bartender; and a Magnetic Healer (Read as Keabr). John Renfro, by the way, was born during the famine and reached the US at age 2.

Thomas McGraugh was born in 1834 and immigrated in 1854 at about 20. His brother Edward was born in Pennsylvania July 1838 while Thomas was still in Ireland. See comments about Edward's birth in Notes.

Frederick Price is not Irish, and his name is John Wesley Price.

The following were in Ireland in famine times: John Cosgrove, Dominick Cosgrove, John Renfro, Thomas McGraugh, Peter Heagney, Ann Mates.

John Shanley was born in 1822.

Peter O'Malley, John Renfro, and Daniel Hiller immigrated as children.

I have not looked at all manuscript pages. Those that include month and year of birth are ones that I did see, but in some cases this information was unreadable or non-existent. I recorded unusual occupations, probably all such, but did not begin until I had nearly concluded my efforts.

The manuscript pages contain useful information that has not been included in the index/summary pages. A few:
Occupation
Mo/Yr of birth - ignored by the transcribers in favor of a calculated year (from Age) that may be wrong
Arrival Year (to US)
Citizenship Status
House Number - more useful in manuscript order - no street name - and not used in the 1900 census.
Gender - Useful for the transcribers who listed Michael Ellis as Mabel Ellis and in another census as Mother.

Updates
None Here Yet, but . . .
Fredrick Price record was corrected.
Magnetic Healer was noted as the occupation of a lady on Center St. Previously she had been identified as a Magnetic Keabr (not that I know what either is).
