J. L. Taylor enumerated only pages 143A & 143B. Henry T. Hopkins had done the remainder. 2. Entries enclosed with brackets [ ] indicates that the entry was marked through. 3. The Marriage License Index I mention in the Transcriber Remarks, is a manuscript titled 'Gonzales County, Texas Marriage Licenses Issued 1829 - 1900', copyrighted in 1993 by Marjorie Lee Burnett. 4. This Enumerator's spelling is sometimes very bad. I have transcribed his recordings as he spelled it. 5. All spelling of Birthplaces are as recorded in census. 6. All spelling of Occupations are as recorded in census. 7. All spelling of Relationships are as recorded in census 8. Enumerator uses a long dash and " as a ditto for Last names. This ditto is sometimes used on every person living in a household, even if that person has a different last name. 9. During the tallying of the Census, marks were made over the first name and relationship of the heads of households. 10. Enumerator's writes a J that looks very much like a Z and is sometimes hard to distinguish the difference. 11. People that were married less than 1 year was originally written as a fraction, but was later overwritten with a 0. ========================================================================================================= This Census was transcribed by Richard C.
